Join Scout Night on August 28th. Even if school has not

promote scouting in your community at ALL LEVELS. Could

games to entice those older scouts? Special speaker,
have food! Let Lee know of your plans and if you need
flyers made up for promotion. There will be another
roundup in September, but the more we advertise, the
better results we will have. |
