Guidelines:
  • This year, we will have a CCR competition & a SLC competition!
  • SLCs can use whatever strategy they choose to collect the most items!
  • Each week, the leading SLC will get to challenge another SLC to a DARE!
  • Each CCR class should count their items and report the total amount to Ms. McClelland in Room 509C by e-mail, note, or call 26509.  Please keep your own count to compare it with my count.
  • Leading classes will be announced daily.
  • Some items count more or less (ie- Every $1 donated or a complete meal-2, a can/box-1, Ramen Noodles- 1/2.) EXPIRED ITEMS WILL NOT BE COUNTED.  Please hold your boxes until picked up.
  • Boxes can be delivered to any class that wants one, and Interact will pick up food on THURSDAYS to make periodical deliveries to Goodwin. 
  • The winning SLC will not only have bragging rights but also some sort of celebration!
  • The winning CCR class (with over 200 items or more) will be rewarded with a PIZZA PARTY!   The winning SLC & CCR Class will be announced on Friday, December 11th!

All donations will go to the local food pantry at the Goodwin Center!!
