Pack 359, I am so sorry to inform you that the VFW event has been canceled for the scouts.  They have decided that they do not want to use the scouts. I apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused.

Hello, There was a mistake on the date, the VFW flag retirement is Sunday, July 4th from 2-4.  If you can attend please attend Sunday NOT Monday.  

Howdy Pack 359, I hope everyone is enjoying their 4th of July weekend.  The VFW post 1799 in Whitehouse is holding a flag retirement ceremony on Monday from 2-4 and they have requested some scouts to attend.  There will be refreshments and most likely the news out there.  If you are able please be at the VFW post by Brown elementary at 1:45 in Field uniform (class A). Flags need to also be picked up this week using the same den assignments as last time.  Den leaders please coordinate flag pick up between Wednesday and Sunday of this week.  All flags need to be picked up by Sunday, July 11th please.  Here is the new link for routeshttps://etacpack359.org/routes/
