The summer of 2021 was not just all summer camps! The Scouts of Troops 117 and 5117 were keeping busy in the outdoors and giving back to the community. Here are some updates:

Troops 117 and 5117 were also able to meet to over the summer to continue working on the Orienteering Merit Badge at Mt. Tabor. This course is a favorite of our Scoutmaster, as he is know to run these steps in the early morning hours.
