Mahalo nui loa

Food Drive 2017 was a huge success!  Thank you to all the Units that collected food and monetary donations for our Community partner The Salvation Army.  With over $5000.00 in food and monetary donations collected the Salvation Army was so appreciative of all your hard work!
 
Thank you to the 2017 Camporee team Fred Ventura, Scott Neerings, Jamie Wright, Caren Tateishi, Herb Yuen, Ira Uradomo, Rudy Reyes, Rio Reyes, Eric Taniguchi, Mark and Jasmine Higa and TJ Cordero for another GREAT Scouting event.  Held on the field by UHMC March 3-4 with around 90 Scouts + adults in attendance.  The Scouts competed in various competitions using their Scout skills in knot tying, fire making, and first aid.  Every Unit earned ribbons for attendance and proficiency.  Watch for an upcoming issue of the newsletter to see a listing of Camporee scores and awards.

Mahalo to all the Scouts, Scouters, and Supporters of the Maui County Council, Boy Scouts of America!
