"A Top Notch Troop of Adventure & Learning"
Chartered by the Yorkville American Legion Post 489
================================================== Special request for help from Mark Rothman at the Kendall County Outdoor Education Center (good way to earn community service hours): I'm looking for some volunteers with wheelbarrows, shovels, and rakes to help me move some mulch Saturday June 1 for 3-4 hours in the morning before it gets hot. We'd be finishing up the trails and meeting areas at the center. If I get a dozen people, it will probably be done sooner. In any case, could you send out a note asking for help from 8:30 a.m. to 11:30 a.m. on Saturday, June 1? Have them respond to me at kcoutoored@gmail.com. ===================================================
