Clinton Scouts Join Together For Apple n' Pork

The various Boy Scouts troops in Clinton came together to run four different booths during the 55th Annual Apple n' Pork Festival.

 

Assistant Scoutmaster Ed Cicenas indicates in Clinton there are four different Scout organizations: the Venture Crew, Boys Scouts Troop 1142, Boys Scout Troop 7142, and Cubs Scouts Pack 142. The different organizations worked together to sell apple fritters, pork burgers, apple cakes, and caramel apples.

 

 

Bob Kreitler notes the money raised during the festival will help the Scouts attend summer camp. Summer camp is the hallmark of the program and features hiking, camping, fishing, and merit badge work. The Scouts also have an opportunity to go to Canada next year.

 

 

Ron Armstrong is the Scoutmaster and he says the troop currently has five Boy Scouts who are applying to be Eagle Scouts. Eagle Scout is the highest rank within the organization and candidates are required to complete a community service project.
