Troop 508 Newsletter 4/14/2021

 

This Week in Troop 508

 

News

For the next few weeks, we will be having troop meetings outside because Woodhaven is undergoing remodeling to Hancock Hall.
Please bring a camping chair to sit in. If there are any weather issues, then we can plan on doing a short Zoom meeting and we will make a call on that prior to meeting times.

 

A scout is thrifty… Scouts, pay your way to summer camp by selling camp cards/booklets!

We are selling camp cards plus you have the option to get a physical booklet & app w/1000s of discounts across the nation. To sell cards online, share this link 2021 Online Camp Card Sales. You will also need to share this info so the scout gets credit for online sales: District-Western Horizon, Type-Troop, Unit-508, B for boys.
