Scouts working on partials are welcome to come to just the meetings needed.
Adults, please email Mrs. Dagen if you can co-teach this class with her. The more teachers we have, the more scouts we can accept. If no co-teachers, Mrs. Dagen can still use your help for two-deep leadership.

All uniformed scouts and leaders are invited to participate in this meaningful patriotic ceremony to honor and remember the thousands who lost their lives in one of the most infamous attacks on America. In 2001, John Bennett, FBI Special Agent, was in the New Jersey FBI building across from the World Trade Towers. He was immediately involved in investigating the attack that he witnessed firsthand. His immersion in interviewing the survivors to find clues to the terrorists brought forth intense memories that will stay with him forever.
