Thank you Faith Lutheran Church

Thank you to Faith Lutheran Church for chartering Troop 538 and Pack 3538. All the scouts did a great job helping with the service for Scout Sunday and as always, there was plenty to eat at reception. Happy Birthday Boy Scouts of America - 105 years old today - Born February 8, 1910.

Mall Show

Another Mall Show is in the books. A big shoutout to Doug Yoder, Zane Yoder, Swayer Fisher and Jayden Linder for helping out at the booth this year.

Doug and Zane fixed the model trebuchet so we could send Mr. Bear airborne. THANK YOU for making this happen! Lots of kids had fun pulling the trigger and launching Mr. Bear.

I am sure the Mall appreciated us NOT bringing the big guy down to the mall and launching pumpkins at JC Penney. The store was within the range of our bi...g trebuchet from where we were located in the mall.

Thank you to Susquehanna Valley Mall for allowing the Boy Scouts to have our show. We had members from the public fill out letters to send to our serviceman overseas. The serviceman will greatly appreciate getting the letters. Below are some photos from today's event.

Hope to see everyone tomorrow at Faith Lutheran Church for Scout Sunday
