Remember to Sign Up: Fall Kickoff Picnic is Sunday!

Our End of Summer/Fall Kickoff picnic is quickly approaching.  The picnic is on Sunday, August 28th from 1-5PM at the National Grove South #2, the entrance to which is located near of the intersection of Des Plaines and 29th Avenue.  Here are the activities planned:

  • Delicious food grilled by our own Scout leaders & parents
  • Bounce house
  • Water balloon launchers
  • Bottle Rocket launching
  • Other games, socializing & shenanigans

We need some Akela/parent volunteers to make this happen.  There is no charge for families to attend but we do need some help to make sure we have a great time.  Please take a look at the sign up genius and let us know if you can help:  http://www.signupgenius.com/go/9040e4cadaa2da20-picnic
