Earlier this month, El Reno Boy Scouts, Girl Scouts and Cub Scouts scoured the community for the annual Scouts Food Drive.

The effort helps stock the shelves at The Lord’s Harvest, the local nonprofit ministry founded and operated by Nikki Pruitt.

The collection this year brought in close to 600 pounds of nonperishable food items. The drive is coordinated by Beth Griesel.
