Cub Scouts and Cub Masters who participated with residents of Bethel Health Care Center in decorating the collection boxes for 2011 Hat and Glove Drive.

Cub Scouts from Pack 156, Bethel, along with Cub Masters, Keith Watson, Tim Ritchie and Joe DiSalvo, spent a fun-filled evening, Tuesday, November 29, with the Residents of Bethel Health Care Center decorating collection boxes for the Cubs’ first annual Hat and Glove Drive which began the day after Thanksgiving.  The Cubs, all Bethel students from Johnson and St. Mary’s Schools, are participating in the drive as their fourth grade Service Project this year.

 

Collection boxes will be placed with Bethel retailers and everyone is urged to donate worthy items for the drive.  Following collection, residents of Bethel Health Care Center will sort and pair the items for distribution to needy individuals in the community.
