Scouting for food Drive

On March 22nd, 1,435 Cub Scouts, Boy Scouts, and their leaders participated in the 28th annual Scouting for Food Drive.  The group is from the Weber View District, which serves North Ogden, Pleasant View, Harrisville, Farr West, and Plain City. The food drive was very successful in collecting 52,400 pounds of food which was collected and transported to the Ogden Rescue Mission. They would like to thank the public for their generosity of the donated food items. The amount collected was nearly 30% more than last year. They appreciated the donation of time by the youth and the leaders.

The Farr West chapter of Modern Woodmen of America chose April 18th as its plant-a-tree day. For the event, they donated $800 worth of trees to be planted at Farr West Elementary. Volunteers from the group helped dig holes, add soil, plant the trees, and water them. The organization has donated trees in the past to Farr West Elementary as well as Fremont High School.
