Youth Leadership Members arrived on the scene of ACT/Spooner House and the American Red Cross ready to collect, carry and distribute food from the National Postal Workers Food Drive.  Throughout the nation, the Postal Workers Food Drive has become a tradition among residents to help local agencies and food banks stock their shelves during the summer months.  Youth Leadership members unloaded 43 mail trucks filled with food from 12- 6p.m.  All of the members  found the day to be rewarding and a good learning experience!  Food items that were donated will help the homeless and those less fortunate in the valley.
