Service Time for Tuesday

Start off your summer vacation with some service time! The library is looking for some help from the scouts.  The project is located at the Otsego County Demonstration Gardens.  We currently have at least 5 eagle projects in this garden.  

The proposed dates for brush hauling and wood chip spreading are daytime slots of June 14 Tuesday 9am-12noon, and June 29 Wednesday, 3-5pm.  This counts as service time to write in your scout handbook.  Please bring water bottle, gloves, rake, and wheelbarrow or bucket to spread mulch. Wear your Class B tshirt so you represent scouting.

We need a few more adult volunteers to supervise.  Please let me know if you can come.  Thanks.


We didn't talk about this at a meeting but also on Tuesday evening the troop was invited to the Elks Lodge on June 14th at 6:00pm for Flag Day ceremony and retirement.  It is Open to the public for the ceremony, and some members of the troop generally go in uniform to help. This would be service time if you are in uniform.

Take advantage of these opportunities to get some service time completed for rank advancement and help the community at the same time! Hope to see you there!
