The members of Troop 23 Tupper Lake had an enjoyable experience playing pickle ball. We appreciate Matthew Showalter for setting up this activity for our group. The kids benefited greatly from learning a new game that promotes teamwork and exercise.

Our Troop 23 scouts dedicated their Saturday to volunteering at the lunch with Santa event. As part of this annual Tupper Lake tradition, the scouts assisted with setup, organized tables and chairs, laid out food for the lunches, decorated the area for Santa and Mrs. Claus, and helped serve the meals. They also participated in the cleanup efforts. It was wonderful to see the scouts actively involved in this excellent community event.
