Scouting breakfast to highlight what the program does in the lives of members
BOARDMAN, Ohio (WKBN) – Scouting is alive and well in the Valley. Boy Scouts of America changed its name to Scouting America in February to allow all children to benefit from the program.
Locally, the Scouting community will get together next Tuesday morning at the Lake Club in Poland for its 20th annual breakfast. Scouts will be there and the community is invited to attend as well.
Mark Luke, Scouting America advocate, says there will be two guest speakers this year.
'Our first speaker is a Scout speaker — Gordon Moore, from Poland. He's going to tell us about his Scouting experience. He achieved his Eagle Scout recently, in April. We're going to talk about what that's meant to him in his life. And our keynote speaker this year is Bill Johnson, president of Youngstown State University, and military veteran and Congressman. He's going to talk about his Scouting experience when he was young, as well as what he's seen Scouting do in this world,' Luke said.
This is a fundraising event but it's free to attend.
You must reserve your spot by Thursday. You can do that online or by calling 330-773-0415.
