It's that time once again—our Scouts are launching their third annual yard work fundraiser! We'll arrange yard schedules according to each Scout's availability this year. We're asking for donations to help send our Scouts to summer camp in Montana and support other upcoming scouting activities.

To get scheduled, please call us at (501) 301–0381—we look forward to helping you soon! 🌿🌤️🍃

This week, our nation honors the life and legacy of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. - a man who changed the world through peace, service, and unwavering courage. He taught that doing what's right isn't always easy, but it's always worth the effort.

As Scouts, we promise to help other people at all times and to keep ourselves brave, kind, and reverent. Dr. King lived those ideals - not with anger or force, but with faith, compassion, and determination. He believed that light could drive out darkness, and love could overcome hate.

When we treat everyone with respect, stand up for fairness, and serve our communities, we honor Dr. King's dream. A Scout doesn't wait for the world to change - we help make that change happen, one good turn at a time.

Christmas Tree Pick Up 🌲🎄✨

As you prepare your Christmas trees, remember to mark your calendar and register for your local Scout Troop 560's post-season tree pickup service. The troop will also collect donations for the Orting Food Bank and retire any flags that require it.

Our route will begin at Foothills Bridge, proceed toward Patterson Road on 162, and continue up Orting Kapowsin Highway to 200th. If you would like your tree collected and reside nearby or within one of these developments, please register using the link below so we can ensure your residence is included in our scheduled stops.

Save the Date: Scouts Christmas Tree Pickup!

🎄 Just a quick reminder—SAVE THE DATE! Our Scouts will be coming around after Christmas to pick up your REAL Christmas trees, so you can start the new year tree-free and stress-free.
Plus, we’ll be collecting food bank donations at the same time. If you have non-perishable items to give, simply leave them out with your tree and our Scouts will take care of the rest.

✨ Early sign-up is launching soon! We’re already planning and will share details on how to reserve your spot—stay tuned for updates.

Thank you for supporting our Scouts and making a difference in our community! 💚
