Hills & Hollows Work Day Details - 3/3/12

Hi all,

Frontier Trails District is looking to begin a yearly tradition of conducting a district-wide Work Day at Hills and Hollows.  Saturday could be a real help in the beatification of Hills and Hollows. We really need your support to spruce up Hills and Hollows.

If you can make it out to camp on Saturday, even for an hour or so, it could be a big help.

Take a look at the email string and the plans to accomplish some task to help the camp. 

The fun begins at 8:00 AM.

Thanks!

Yours in Scouting,
