Greetings Troop 380 Scouts, Leaders, and Families,
We want to take a moment to thank everyone who came out and helped with our Halloween party. We had more than 50 Cub Scouts and their family members join us for this fun event! It was a great turnout, and we appreciate all the support.
We want to recognize Dave Ishikawa and Landin Speer for their excellent leadership during this event. Their guidance helped everything run smoothly and made the party a big success. A special shout-out to Becky Walters and Giuliane Belt for their fantastic work in coordinating the decorations and treats. They really made the party look great and ensured there were plenty of delicious snacks for everyone to enjoy. In fact, there are lots of treats left over, and the Scouts will be able to enjoy them at the end of the meeting tomorrow. Thank you all for making this Halloween celebration so special!
