**Good Turn Complete!** Before the Ferdinand Folk Fest, the Scouts of Troop 186 set up trash and recycling boxes around the park. Afterward, they pitched in to clean up and sort out recyclables. Caring for the land is part of being Clean and Helpful, and we're proud to practice environmental stewardship by leaving our shared spaces better than we found them. Thank you, scouts, leaders, and festival organizers! 💚

"Do a good turn daily." That's the scout slogan, and the youth and adults in our troop lived up to it yesterday. On the 25th anniversary of 9/11 our volunteers were honored to help serve and bus tables at the local Heroes Gala put on by the Operation Mind Body and Soul - Veterans of Perry County. Thank you to our first responders, veterans, and all public servants.

Earlier this weekend our scouts planned a "build a boat" activity. They wanted to test their creative engineering skills to see if small teams could build functional watercraft and race them. Regardless of how functional they were (or were not), scouts enjoyed the challenge, and the time in the water on a hot weekend.​ A fried turkey, baked potato, and green bean dinner with cinnamon rolls for dessert satisfied the hungry appetites after an active day.

Congratulations to Jack for completing the construction of his Eagle Scout project this weekend! 🦅
Our troop is proud of the work Jack did in leading the construction of a new informational kiosk at the Lick Creek Trailhead in the Hoosier National Forest, near Paoli. The planning and leadership were evident with supplies, tools, and some would say most importantly food to feed the work crew (not all of whom are pictured here).
The Lick Creek Trailhead is a unique spot, popular with horseback riders, but also a place with deep history: the trail passes near the Roberts & Thomas Family Cemetery, the last remaining trace of the Lick Creek Settlement which was one of Indiana's earliest free Black communities, settled in the early 1800s by free Black pioneers and Quaker allies who journeyed north together. Jack's kiosk will help the Forest Service communicate with visitors to help protect and enjoy this significant archeological area.

Jack didn't just build a kiosk. He built a lasting connection between our community, the outdoors, and a piece of history worth remembering.
Way to go, Jack! We can't wait to see you complete the paperwork and board of review! 🦅
