Boy Scout Sunday at Salem February 3

A scout is reverent!  The Boy Scouts of America designates February 3, 2013 as Scout Sunday, which is the primary date to recognize the contributions of young people and adults to Scouting.  BSA Troop 2810 will participate in Scout Sunday on February 3 at the 10:30am service celebrating this special day at Salem Lutheran Church.

Troop 2810, chartered and hosted by Salem Lutheran Church, begins its third year as a troop.  Troop 2810 offers a huge variety of outdoor skills.  While they are a young troop, here is over 28 years of leadership and experience combined.

The mission of Boy Scouts of America is to prepare young people to make ethical and moral choices over their lifetime by instilling the values of the Scout Oath and Law.  Boys ages 11-17 eager to have fun and adventure, looking for leadership opportunities, want to enjoy new friendships and more are encouraged to join Troop 2810.  Boy Scouting is a program designed to develop self-confidence, leadership, teamwork, respect, and outdoor skills with fun activities including camping, hiking, High Adventure opportunities, community service, summer camp, and many other events.

Troop 2810 meets Monday evenings from 6:30-8pm at Salem.  For more information about BSA Troop 2810, please contact committee chair Connie Handel or Scoutmaster Terry Handel at 815-895-6953 or via email at trailtoeagle@comcast.net.
