There will be serious fun, songs, awards, s’mores and a wonderful campfire. Plus we’ll announce details of our Summer Program and a preview for Fall Program. Be there!

All Dens/grade levels should attend. Masks are still mandatory!


Where do I park? Two options:

Compost Center Entrance… Street Park at Compost Center Entrance along Grove Street and Family Cir. …hike in. There will be signs to lead the way.

WoodEnd Elementary… Park at Woodend is the shortest hike to the old Council Ring in the middle of the RTF. Please note, we do not light/sign the Woodend route…you will need to know the way and bring a light!


Regarding Masks… yes, for this meeting we are wearing them. June11=MaskRequired. We are beholden to Gear 4 rules set by our Local Council.
