On Saturday, February 4, 2023, youth and adults from FYRE’s Scouting units participated in BSA Greater Tampa Bay Area Council’s (GTBAC) Scouting for Food event. To raise awareness for the annual BSA food drive, Scouts hiked 40 miles from the GTBAC Office to Lakeland, FL.
The hike began at 6am in Tampa. Scouts who participated completed one of several hiking merit badge requirements and earned community service hours.
The FYRE Foundation participates in this Scouting for Food drive and provides collected food to the Redeemer Church in Riverview, FL who hosts FYRE Scouting activities. If you would like to help with food drive, find more details here.
