Yard Sale

Samantha Schillingburg, a member of Christ Community Church, will be holding a yard sale this weekend at the church. If you have any items you are interested in clearing out of your house and donating to the sale - please either drop them by the daycare or leave them in the fellowship hall tonight.

Parent's Night Out

Samantha will also be hosting a Parent's Night Out at Christ Community Church next Saturday, May 22 from 6-10pm. The cost is $15 for your first child and $10 for each additional child. There will be a CPR trained adult on premise at all times and several additional sitters. If you are interested - please see Amy for a copy of the flyer and additional information.

Summer Schedule

Our official scout year does end with our Bridging Ceremony. In order to keep the boys interested in scouting and gear them up to come back for the next scout year (which begins in late August/early September - depending on when Council plans our next Roundup) we do try to schedule 1 or 2 fun activities a month over the summer. If you have any ideas for activities you think would be fun for all our scouts and families - please email them to me. Once we put together a complete schedule we will email it out to everyone.

Continuing to Respecting Our Facility

·         The area within the fence is off limits
