Good Day Scouting Families
We know it's been socially different for awhile now and we certainly miss seeing you all. School has begun in Clayton County with remote sessions.

We hope that you all continue to be well and stay safe.

I still have a plan and I can email details and info that can be emailed back to me or sent in text. I don't want any of my babies to miss out on any advancement due to not meeting.
