ScoutingWire: Alumni Edition



Hello Robert,
Scouting is off to a great start this year. We have three Eagle Scouts competing in the Winter Olympics (see story below) and our program is now available across the nation to kindergarten-aged youth after the successful Lions' pilot program. Wow!
Thank you for your continued support of the Scouting movement. Here are just some of the latest happenings.
Yours in Scouting,

Dustin Farris
Director, Scouting Alumni and Friends
P.S. Always remember...Once A Scout, Always A Scout.
P.P.S. If you're looking to show your Scouting spirit at school or in the office, we have just the messenger bag for you! Visit the Alumni Store to learn more.
P.P.P.S. If you find a typo in this ScoutingWire: Alumni edition, send us an email at bsaalumni@scouting.org, with the subject "Alumni Spelling Bee", and a description of the typo. We will feature YOU in a future issue of Alumni Alive!
