Thank you to everyone who helped with our sock drive and who stopped by our hot cocoa stand.

We gathered enough socks to put together 152 bags. Each bag has 2 pair of socks.

Every resident in every nursing home in fort scott will receive a bag from the scouts.

Additionally, we were able to adopt 2 kids from the Beacon Angel Tree.

The scout program would not be possible without such a supportive community.

Thank you.

Socks will be delivered on Saturday morning.

Just a reminder that we will be collecting socks for area nursing home residents. We will collect socks during the Christmas parade Thursday night. The kids have made a sleigh to collect the socks, and we will deliver them on the 21st of December.

So come to the parade, grab a cup of hot cocoa or coffee from the scouts, and make it rain socks!!

Our Tiger Den (1st graders) have taken on an ambitious project and we need Fort Scott's help! The Tigers want to make sure all the residents of our local nursing homes receive new socks this Christmas, so Pack 114 is doing a sock drive. You can help in several ways.

1). Contact BSA Pack 114 to arrange drop-off of new socks. We can even pick them up!

2). Bring new socks to the Christmas Parade on December 5th. We will collect socks as we march in the parade.

3). Visit our Hot Cocoa and Coffee stand at the Christmas Parade. We will be located Downtown in front of the Senior Citizens Center 26 N Main St.

Proceeds from the hot cocoa and coffee sales will go directly to the 3 projects that the scouts have voted to do. You can specify if you want your proceeds or donation to go to a particular project.

One of our Scout mom's has promised us a REALLY good recipe for Hot Cocoa, so come check it out.

I am very proud of my scouts right now. at tonight’s meeting, we did our Service to the Community badge requirement. We had to do 4 things to complete this badge. 1) have a election, 2), listen to an elected official about their roles and duties, 3) learn about the 3 branches of government, 4) present and vote on a community service project we will do as a pack.

Commissioner VanHoecke talked to the scouts about his position as a city commissioner. Then, the scouts broke into 2 groups to work on community service projects. They had to have a plan about what we would do, how we would fund it, and have a plan to carry it out. Then, each side presented their “bill”, and we voted. We also had 1 more plan that just the 1st graders had started at the last meeting. All three were great plans, so a motion was made to do them all.

We’re going to raise money to buy selling hot cocoa and coffee at the Christmas parade. The funds will be used to buy Trenton some warm clothes, a tent, and a good sleeping bag. We will also adopt 2 kids for Christmas, and we’re going to do a sock drive to get residents at the nursing homes new socks.

All projects were thought of by the scouts, and I am so proud of them. They take their scout oath seriously in that they help other people.

I will post details about our projects in another post, so be sure to follow our page to see how you can help these kids do good in their community.u
