July 21st Northwest Harvest – Community Service

On a cloudy Saturday of Summer Vacation, 13 scouts, 2 non-scout youth family members, and 5 adults performed community service at the Kent Northwest Harvest Warehouse.
From 9 am until noon we packaged 11,400 lbs. of frozen corn on the cob.  Our task in the production line was to gather the “family size” plastic bags, remove the air from the bag, and seal them up with tape.  Both Scouts and Adults did a good job keeping up with the huge volume of corn coming our way.
We were recognized by the event coordinator as a hard working group and we were please to feed 8,769 families with some nutritious corn.

Summer Camp at Camp Pigott


On July 8-14 a group of 6 scouts attended summer camp at Camp Pigott in Monroe. The scouts enjoyed themselves and all earned enough requirements to advance at least one rank. Combined, they earned 26 merit badges and completed a service project for the camp repairing one of the main trails.
