Leatherwork Days have been cancelled due to lack of volunteers

Leatherwork Days have been cancelled due to lack of volunteers
Sadly, we are going to have to cal our Leatherwork Merit Badge Day and Cub Scout Leatherwork Days due to the lack of volunteers. Just a reminder, this organization is run pretty much 100% on volunteers and if we do not have enough volunteers, more activities like these will get cancelled. Please set-up and help volunteer in our organization so we can have more successful events.
Remember, it takes a village to raise a scout, not the same villages each and every time.

Mission Peak Prayer Hike gives us a unique opportunity to visit different houses of worship & gain a greater knowledge of other religions in our community. It is for all involved with the BSA-Scout Program --Cub Scouts, Scouts BSA, Venturing, Explorer, Sea Scouts, Learning for Life Scouts, Scout Leaders and Scout Families. This is the perfect opportunity to compliment your unit’s commitment “To serve God” & “Duty to God”.

Class A Uniform for all the scouts. Scout family members who are not registered with scouting can wear Casual/ but decent clothes. No shorts or skirts. Bring your unit flag. Some of the worship places require a head covering. Please bring a scarf or handkerchief to cover the head. Bring plenty of water and snacks.

“Houses of Worship” places are not within hiking distance. You need a car to go around or arrange for carpooling.

We will be having a “Very Special Lunch & Indian Tea” at Sikh Temple.
