 All Units should set a date now for having a Friends of Scouting Annual Campaign presentation in 2011. Our goal is to have all unit presentations completed by April 2011. We would very much like to have all of the Troops completed at their first Court of Honor, as this would be the most ideal time for reaching all your families. Packs should plan on having theirs at the Blue & Gold Banquet. Our team of presenters is available for any date that you choose. Just select a date and time and we will schedule a presenter to be there. Click here to register your unit online for the 2011 Friends of Scouting annual Campaign.
