We’ll be raking, trimming, and cleaning up the grounds around our Pack headquarters. This is a great opportunity for Scouts to work together, have fun, and contribute toward community service requirements for rank advancement.


Donuts will be provided after all the scouts participate in cleaning, around ~10am !!!

Time: 9:00am to ~ 10.00am

Location: United Methodist Church at 273 Vernon St, Wakefield, MA 01880

What to bring:

  • Rakes, clippers, saws, tarps, and leaf blowers if available.

  • Gardening gloves recommended.

  • Rain or shine event.

Where to Meet up: Older Scouts (AOL, Webelos, Bears) will typically work in the front of the church

The plan is to run this evening of scout recognition outside in the parking lot (weather permitting) and there will be some post event activities (snacks and social hour) more info as the date approaches 


Date: May 8th

Time: 6.30pm to 8:00pm

Location: United Methodist Church at 273 Vernon St, Wakefield, MA

Dress: Class A Uniforms!!!


We could use help with the setup of chairs.  If any parents/scouts would like to get there 10-15 mins in advance would be awesome.
