Opportunities for Scouts open up through sales

After seeing little faces in the stores' fronts and walking around their local neighborhoods, it is a pleasure to send a thank you to all of friends, families and businesses that purchased popcorn from a Cub Scout or Boy Scout.

The purchases help these boys participate in many wonderful activities, and your support is greatly appreciated.

Additionally, I would like to send a special thank you to Lynden Transport for bringing the popcorn to the boys. Your support has helped to make a strong program for the boys to participate in.

Now, due to the efforts of Lynden and the staff, uniforms, awards and camp can now be paid for through the proceeds of the popcorn.

So, thank you to a wonderful community that has helped to support such a wonderful program.

It's amazing what one small purchase can do to make our youth happy, safe and successful.
