The address is 6928 Paluxy Dr, Tyler, TX 75703. As with the parades, please have your scout wear their Class A along with any Christmas accessories they’d like.

Tuesday 12/13 – Caroling & “Thank you for your Service” holiday gift for our Whitehouse Police and Firemen

It’s beginning to look a lot like Christmas! It’s a Den 4 tradition to pack a “Merry Christmas” basket for our police and fire first responders, so much so that an officer at the Whitehouse parade asked if the Scouts were going to be “dropping by” this holiday season!  And a BIG thank you to our wonderful Den 4 parents who support our Scouts in their service!!   THIS TUESDAY – December 13 – We will meet at the church at 7pm to pack baskets with treats, and then drive to the fire & police stations for delivery. Scouts should wear their scout T-shirts, Uniforms, and of course Santa Hats!! Parents and siblings are welcome. What types of treats?  Homemade treats are once again welcomed…

Thank you for a great parade season!

Parade season has wrapped up for the year. 4 parades in a span of 2 months! Our scouts did a fantastic job representing the organization and our community. Thank you scouts for doing your best! To the parents who walked or rode with us, and even those who did not, thank you for modeling the importance of community involvement. Last but certainly not least, a HUGE thank you to our parade committee and their spouses. They pulled the trailer so our Lions and Tigers could participate, and spent hours (not kidding) planning and decorating the trailer for the Christmas parades. THANK YOU!!!   (Parade committee? Why yes, we have a parade committee. There are other sub-committees made up of our amazing committee members. These parents/aunts/uncles…
