While the annual tradition of a Winter Banquet and a year end slide show began the first year after Team Ready's establishment, the new tradition of a charity food drive was added after becoming a not-for-profit organization in 2005. The inaugural collection averaged more that 2 items per participant, totalling 87 non-perishable items worth over 110 pounds - a very impressive start that we plan to continue for many years.
The 2006-2010 collections have been delivered to the Stevens Point “Operation Bootstrap”. If you missed the chance to contribute at the banquet, you are still encouraged to make a donation on your own – either to Operation Bootstrap or any other well known food drive (BSA “Scouting for Food”, USPS “Stamp out Hunger”, America’s Second Harvest, the Salvation Army, or your local church food pantries).
