VOA Day of Service

We had several 2319 scouts at the VOA Day of Service at Allatoona aquatics Base this past weekend. We cleared and stacked fallen branches, cleaned up the beach, and the biggest project of all, finishing placing rip rap stones along the shore of the amphitheater to protect from erosion! It was ton of fun and we’re already planning the next one!

Crew 2319 had an awesome and relaxing game night this week, thanks everyone who was able to join us. I don’t know about the rest of you, but playing games for a couple hours with pizza & milkshakes was a much needed break from the craziness that is December for me!
