We hope to see you there!

Mr. Walsh recently took on the big challenge of completing Wood Badge training. Wood Badge is Scouting’s premier training for leaders Mr. Walsh receives his Wood Badge Beads in a special ceremony on Monday March 2. He will not be at our meeting. The next time you see him be sure to give him a BIG Scout Handshake and congratulate him!
A Personal Management session was originally scheduled for March 2. This is postponed because Mrs. Walsh wants to see Mr. Walsh receive his Wood Badge beads. We will let you know when she will be back.
What a huge success! The week was packed with memories we will carry the rest of our lives. Woodruff Scout Reservation was a great location. Other than a few hiccups, the staff went above and beyond to ensure our expectations were exceeded and we had a great week.
