On Wednesday, June 30, 5-7:30pm, there is a reception being given to thank certain FOS donors from the Great Lakes Council.

Location is my place of business, ArvinMeritor, 2135 W, Maple Rd., Troy  (between Collidge and Crooks)

Arrive at 5pm and enter thru the south employees entrance.  that entrance is at the back of the building, it is NOT the main entrance on Maple Rd.

What I need is 6-8 scouts, in full class “A” uniform.

2 scouts will help man the check-in table, the balance will mingle with the guests and talk with them about Scouting.

All will be involved with the opening flag ceremony which is merely to walk the flags in, post the colors, recite pledge and scout oath and law.

if you can get yourself there, I will make sure you get a ride home.

you can email me, or sign up this Monday at the picnic.

Note:  there will be alcohol severed to the adults only.  so if there is an issue with this, please do not sign up

thanks
