SHEILA COVINGTON
Despite a busy family life with 2 boys and a full-time job in international logistics, when Sheila and her son joined Troop 422, she jumped right in to help! This year alone, she ran the entire popcorn sales fundraiser for our scouts and led adults on a memorable trip to Scouters Winter Camp (SWC). Sheila is also an advocate for camperships and is a great supporter of our troop's girls' patrol! We are truly blessed she's part of our team!
Congratulations, Theresa, Ryan, and Sheila!
