At our Luncheon on May 25th our speaker was James McClelland from the Boy Scouts. Our very own member, James filled in for Rachal Carson, Unit Service Executive for the Huron Trail District.
 
James told us, "the Huron Trails District Boy Scouts, which serves Washtenaw County, has 2,302 youth in membership, 1,317 Cub Scouts, 900 Boy Scouts and 85 Venturers."
 
Scott Nelson, after his talk gave James a check for the Scouts for $2,500. James said, the money will go for the young children to go to Summer Camps. 
 
One Camp he described in his presentation, is the National Scout Jamboreee. More than 40,000 Scouts and leaders from across the country participate in the 10-day event filled with the most popular and highest quality outdoor activities Scouts enjoy.
