Events

Troop 170 will again participate in the Wreaths Across America program at Mill Springs National Cemetery. This service project will be held on Saturday, December 17. Scouts should meet at the Mill Springs Battlefield Visitor’s Center & Museum parking lot, 9020 West Highway 80 in Nancy, at 11:30 am. Full Class A uniform with neckerchief is expected. The program is held annually to remember and honor our veterans through the laying of remembrance wreaths on the graves of our country’s fallen heroes. The service project will last until around 1:30 pm.

The Somerset Junior Woman’s Club has requested Troop 170 Scouts to assist with the Somerset Sunset Skeddadle Run/Walk (With Colors) on Saturday, August 19, at Pulaski County Park. This race will benefit the American Cancer Society and Somerset Junior Woman’s Club activities.

Your help is requested to toss the bright colors on run/walk participants! You are requested to arrive no later than 4:30 pm. DO NOT WEAR YOUR UNIFORM (or any other clothes/shoes that you don’t want to become stained with the colors).

If you can help, contact Natalie Daniels in advance at either 606-274-5022 or 606-305-0958.

Sorry for the delay. The Troop Calendar has now been updated with events through the end of August. Also, please note the “Save The Date” section for upcoming outings.

Several calendar items have been updated. Please check out the page for details. Of immediate importance is that those going on the campout will not be going on the long hike with the Philmont crew.

Trystan’s first Eagle Project workday went extremely well, with lots of help from Scouts and adults. He got most of the pieces for the five picnic tables cut out and pre-drilled, and even completed the assembly of one of the tables. A great example of how teamwork and planning can be effective, and demonstrated the importance of having many people pitch in to get a task completed.
