Scouting @ Home

Scouting @ Home Ideas

Service Project Idea:  A Scout is a Friend to All
Under the present circumstances, many seniors in our community can't leave their homes nor are they able to enjoy friends or family visiting. We'd like to help comfort them and hope that Marin Scouts will join in a service project during the next month or so. 

If you'd like to write to a senior in our community letting them know Scouts are thinking about them during this crisis, you can US mail or email them to the Marin Council, BSA office and we will send them out.  Don't include personal address information in the body of the letter; we will forward any responses to you directly. For more information email Michael Dybeck. Thanks in advance for your participation!
