The Tuesday cub section is in danger of folding, unless we get more volunteers. Two out of the three volunteers are leaving by the summer, and the other one wants to step back. We also need more volunteers in the other sections.

If you can or know someone who could volunteer to help out with the sections please let us know. Volunteering can be flexible you don’t have to be available every week you can share roles. You could also join the parent helpers list to help occasionally.

For more details on volunteering look at the scout website.
