Scouts and Parents
 
Today we had a very active group of Scouts placing flags in the Ft Richardson National Cemetery.  Thank You.  For those scouts who attended today's event you will be credited 2 hours and please note this on your scout logs If any scouts would like to attend the Memorial day Ceremony please be at the cemetary before the event begins promptly at 11:30 am.
 
Finally in regards to Memorial day Service hours there is one more opportunity for scouts to earn more hours on Tuesday the 26th from 9-noon picking up the flags that were placed today.  All you need to do is show up between these hours and report to the log bldg for instruction.
