This past Sunday, Pack 437 had an unforgettable and educational visit to the Henrico 911 Center 🚨

Scouts got a behind the scenes look at how 911 calls are handled and learned exactly what to do in an emergency situation. From start to finish, the group was engaged, curious, and full of great questions!

To top it off, the amazing 911 team sent everyone home with a special package including a coloring book and a safety vest.

Thank you to the dedicated professionals at the Henrico 911 Center for taking the time to teach and inspire the next generation of helpers in our community!
