May Troop Update: Community service & May canoeing trip
This May the Scouts took part in three different activities over the course of May: Community service in The Hills of London Grove, raising the flag during the dedication ceremony of the Avondale Veterans Memorial, and our monthly May trip: canoeing to Energy Island. Unfortunately, the trip was cut down due to weather from the week of the trip flooding the island the Scouts were going to stay on, but much fun was still had with a full day of canoeing, cooking and Scout spirit. Check out the gallery for some new photos!
