Have a son, grandson, nephew, cousin, or other acquaintance (5th - 11th grade) who likes the outdoors, or just needs to get out of the house more? Bring them to our community campfire to learn what scouts is all about. We will have skills demonstrations/learning stations, and a s'mores making station. We will end the event with a short but funny informative "campfire" program. You can also register for some fun door prizes. Applications will be available at the event.

Had a great weekend at Prince Galitzen State Park. The troop stayed in the Organized Group Camping Area and enjoyed absolutely beautiful weather all weekend. We worked through a lot of requirements for First Class all taught by scouts working on their Communication Merit Badge. This included orienteering basics, completing a 1.5 mile orienteering course, practicing rescue throws, how to make water potable, saftey afloat plans, cooking in camp, and several others. We also started work on Golf Merit Badge using the disc golf option by playing a round of gold on the parks awesome disc golf course. Overall a great weekend.

Today the scouts moved the New Creations Pre-School from their long time home in the Houtzdale Lutheran Church to their new home. The scouts also helped clean some hard to reach areas in the church. Many of the scouts are alumni of the pre-school, and the scouts and the parents had a fun time remembering events that happened so many years ago.
