SCV Camp 1524 Prattville Dragoons Holiday Season Canned Food Drive

The Prattville Dragoons recently concluded their canned food drive for the Thanksgiving and Christmas 2019 holiday season.  This is the third annual canned food drive the camp has conducted benefitting the Autauga Interfaith Care Center in Prattville.  This year, the camp set another record, collecting 876 pounds of canned and dry food items.  Additionally, members gave cash which the camp treasury matched so a check for $210 was also presented to Mrs. Denise Brown who runs the AICC and is also on the Prattville City Council.  The check was presented and the cache of food was delivered on Tuesday November 19th by camp Commander Stuart Waldo and 2nd Lt Karl Wade.  Mrs. Brown was delighted and very appreciative of the donations and helpers in the food bank helped unload the stack of canned foods from the bed of the truck in which the delivery was made that afternoon.  Camp Adjutant Wayne Sutherland again served to store the food in his garage as donations were made at camp meetings over the past couple months.  This is a great initiative by the Dragoons to support our community as part of the benevolent outreach mission by the SCV camp.
