Bud Billiken Day Parade – A Victory for Scouts The Bud Billiken day parade has deep roots in Chicago’s African American history dating back to the 1920’s. Today, it is a day to celebrate being a kid. For the past 10 years the Scouts have rallied around this event to demonstrate BSA pride. This year over 100 Scouts and leaders participated in the march down Martin Luther King drive. The Scouts even got some wonderful coverage on TV.
Scouting For Food Breaks Own Record With Donation to The Greater Chicago Food Depository On December 8thScouts from the Chicago Area Council collected food donations for the Greater Chicago Food Depository. The public’s generosity rendered 48,723 pounds of food for people in need. This year’s effort collected 10,000 pounds more than last year’s Scouting for Food. Since pantries are seeing an 89% increase in visits today as compared to just five years ago the additional food that was collected surely helped tens of thousands of hungry Chicagoans during the holiday season. The experience of witnessing these young men enjoy service to their community is like no other council-wide service project. Last year, the Chicago Area Council became the second most productive private organization to gather food supplies for the Depository. Scouts hope to hold on to their position on this list when the final numbers are tabulated for 2012.
The Chicago Area Council would like to extend a very special thanks to the following friends for an extraordinary effort to support the Executive Committee team in 2013. Marge Kato Mariah Ramey Kathleen Ryan Jeanine Schmitt Laura Wimberly
