Christmas Parade – Final Reminder

Final Reminder – Our Scouts and Parents marching in the Parade need to be at the WHS Student Parking Lot no later than 2:15. Lion and Tiger scouts will ride on the Trailer.

Don’t forget to sign-in and sign-out your scout. Scouts need to be in Class A uniforms (layers vs coats). Parents marching can be wearing Class A uniforms or a Pack T-Shirt. Santa hats are welcome! After dropping off your scout with the group, the best place to park/sit to watch the parade will be Holloway Middle School, First…

Troop Meeting Recap

Good Evening, Arrow Families! Scoutmaster Jason here – Thank you all for attending tonight’s Troop Meetings. I wanted to offer a quick explanation of what you all witnessed tonight. As you can tell, the excitement and energy (aka Chaos) is real at the troop level. And that’s a good thing (usually). Scouts BSA Troops are led by the youth scouts.
