You guys deserve a break from Scouting after 4 days of Job Week! We appreciate all your efforts in trying to reach the magically number of $365 per scout. We did not reached our Twenty Thousand Dollars group target this year. However, we did better than 2007.

Do spend your time wisely over the weekend. Complete all your March Hoildays assignments and DO NOT USE Scout Job Week as an excuse for not handling up your Holiday assignments on time when the new term starts next Monday.
