Life to Eagle Training

If you are a Life scout, or darn near close to being a Life scout, you should go to this meeting. You will receive any and all information on what you need to Eagle.

 

Thank You!

Steve, Kevin and Jack for helping out at the Fall Festival for Lynch Wood Church of God.

Government Island Outing

As you can see we have an outing change. The Baldwin Campout has been changed to Government Island due to the closure of Baldwin for the season. This is a back pack food outing. Bring your own water! We will start ferrying scouts across the Columbia at 3:30PM Friday. There will be a chance for boy/adults to come over on Saturday morning. Boating will begin at 10:00AM. Sunday morning will be cooking on a stick. Food will be provided for you. Also, 1 cracker barrel will be cooking on a stick! This outing will be canceled if the weather is bad.

 

Bullwinkle's Almost All Night

Scouting for Food

December 1st we will be going to Bullwinkle's for an almost all nighter and then sleeping at the church after that. That way we are there and ready for Scouting for Food! More information real soon!

 

Adult Christmas Party

Mark your calendar for December 16th. This is where we, as adults, get to have a little fun! Our 5th Annual Christmas/White Elephant Party will be this night. Bob and Jerri Walker are hosting. Look for more information soon!
