Cub Scout Sign Up Day this Saturday

The Annual East Greenwich area “Cub Scout Sign Up Day” is this coming Saturday, September 20, 2014 from 11:00 am-2:00pm at Goddard State Park on Ives Road- East Greenwich.

Boys and their parents are invited to join fun activities and to learn more about Scouting. A registration fee will be collected. There will be games and lots of fun, organizers said.

Representatives from East Greenwich Boy Scout Packs 3 and 4 will be on hand to answer any questions. Scouting is a big activity in our community, and many Cubs go on to Boy Scouts at Troops 1 & 2 in East Greenwich, which produce some of the highest numbers of Eagle Scouts in the State of Rhode Island.

Troop 1 meets every Wednesday night at 7 p.m. at the East Greenwich Firemen’s Association Hall at 80 Queen Street, East Greenwich. Boys at the 6th grade level and above are invited to join Boy Scouts. For more info, send an email to: troop1eg.committee@gmail.com
