Scouting for Food drive is Saturday

OGDEN -- Utah's 25th annual Scouting for Food drive will be held Saturday to help stock the shelves of Catholic Community Services' Joyce Hansen Hall Food Bank, Utah Food Bank and emergency food pantries statewide.

Food drive donations received through Scouting for Food are imperative as the holiday donations supply dwindles and the spring months progress, the food bank announced in a news release. Cub Scouts and Boy Scouts will deliver Scouting for Food bags to Utah homes this week. Residents of each home are encouraged to fill the bag with commercially packaged, nonperishable food items, and leave the bag on the doorstep by 9 a.m. Saturday. That morning, Boy Scouts will go door to door collecting the filled bags with help from the Utah National Guard.

PORTLAND, Ore. -- A Boy Scout leader in Portland subjected a boy to hundreds of instances of fondling, sodomy, oral sex and masturbation in the 1980s, even though leaders from the Scouts and The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints had been warned for years that the man was an abuser, a suit filed Tuesday alleges.

RALEIGH, N.C. -- A Presbyterian church was happy to have Jeremy and Jodi Stokes as Cub Scout leaders, at least until officials there found out they are Mormons and told them they would have to step down because the church does not consider them real Christians.
