✨ What an Incredible Day at Halle-Bration 2025! ✨

Today I had the honor of attending the Halle-Bration Citywide Holiday Celebration & Gift Mall at New Vision United Methodist Church — an event filled with community, culture, and joy.

A huge thank you to everyone who made this day possible and to the organizers who continue to pour love and support into our neighborhoods.

I want to give a special shout-out to Troop 772 for showing up with pride and professionalism to perform the Color Guard flag ceremony. Your leadership, discipline, and spirit were truly inspiring.

Thank you to Scoutmaster Ledon McClellan for guiding these young men and always representing Scouting with excellence.

Events like this remind us why community partnerships matter — and why our youth programs continue to make an impact across Greater Cincinnati.

💙🤍
Scouting. Community. Leadership.
Proud to be part of it.
