This is a reminder that we will be assisting the Town winter fest at Sherrillbrook Town Park (Route 12 south) this Saturday from 11 to 3. They have asked us to keep a campfire going and roast marshmallows for the kids. We will be selling bottled water as a fund raiser toward summer camp. This is a great opportunity for us to show that scouting is alive and well in NH. Anyone who can help out for a coule of hours is encouraged to participate.
