Scouts will meet in the church parking lot at 8:30am on Saturday dressed in their class A uniform. Please eat breakfast beforehand.
The Scouts will return Sunday at approximately eleven am to the Maxfield Edu. Center parking lot, located across Raphael Street from the church. If you are not accompanying your Scout, please make sure that you leave a phone number where you can be reached that morning.
