Pictures have been posted from Family Night out at summer camp. It looks like the boys have been having a great time. The evening was spent having dinner with the family and playing group games. The evening closed with the Order of the Arrow tap out ceremony.
A big thank you goes out to the leaders who made summer camp possible for our boys!

A Scout is trustworthy, loyal, helpful....

Fri, 4 Jul 2008 00:00:00 -0400

.....friendly, courteous, kind, obedient, cheerful, thrifty, brave, clean, and reverent.

Many elements of the Scout Law were evident on Thursday and Friday during the pancake breakfasts while our scouts and scout's parents were unselfishly donating their service to the Dixon Men's Garden Club. A big "THANK YOU" goes out to each and every one of you: Robin, Evan, Todd, Mike C., Pat, Matt A., Mike R., Eric, Josh, Harry, Alex, Adam, Zach, Lisa, Andy, Alec, Ryan, Aaron, Kristy, Matt K., Jesse, and Rosa. I hope I didn't miss anyone.

You all did a great job!

Happy 4th of July!
