Parish Festival

August 12-14, 2011
Broadview Heights, OH

Plan for Parish Festival

The Church of the Assumption Festival is a great opportunity for the troop to give back to our Charter Organization. Volunteering at the Festival will also qualify as service hours toward rank advancement and Citizenship in the Community Merit Badge. As a troop we will be helping out with setup, patroling and cleaning up after the fish fry, and other meals, shucking corn and staying overnight. Mrs. Begley is handling volunteer assignment and sign-up. Please sign up at the August 2nd meeting. Anyone interested can spend Friday and Saturday night camping on the parish grounds. Parents are invited to stay the night as well.

UNIFORM: We will be wearing both Class "A" and Class "B" uniforms throughout the weekend. Class "B" is either Troop 810 T-shirt or Summer Camp T-shirt and scout shorts. This is a must for showing off our troop and allowing other festival workers an easy way to identify us. Bring along an extra scout T-shirt for Saturday evening.
