Terrific Time at National Night Out!
A big shout out and thank you to everyone who supported this wonderful community event, especially Ronni Faith Lotto for organizing this massive gathering and, of course, our local police force. It’s always a pleasure to reconnect with old friends and businessss, but so much better when you meet and connect with so many new ones as we did tonight! One of my most favorite things about scouting is the comraderie and bonding amongst the scouts and leaders. We truly become family. We enjoy one another immensely. We join together and work together, complementing one another…and tonight was no exception as all of our branches came out to represent. In case you weren’t aware, 1776 is comprised not only of Cub Scouts (boys and girls) but also includes Boy Scouts and Venturing Crew (co-ed). This means we not only spend a few years together, but grow and journey together until adulthood. Though we love our little group just way we are, we are always excited for new members and can’t wait to welcome into our group the many new faces we met tonight. Community is only as strong and upstanding as it’s members and we are proud to foster that in our children. So, thank you for your support and we hope to see you at our open house in September 😊

Oh the fun we had at Valley Forge
We had a wonderful (approx) 5 mile hike at Valley Forge last month. The weather was perfect and the company even better. It was a nice turnout for scout attendance and even though the paths we took did not lead us to he dinosaur fossils, there’s always next time! Way to go Cubs Dennis, Evan and Megan! You are 1/3 of the way toward your summer participation badge! Can’t wait to see who joins us in August!!

As you are enjoying time with your families, take the time to reflect on the true meaning of the Fourth of July. The Fourth of July is one of the most revered and celebrated days in American history.
