BSA Cherokee Area Council Update
Tom Davis
KWON Radio visited with Phillip Wright with Cherokee Area Council Boy Scouts of America Northeast Oklahoma on Wednesday's COMMUNITY CONNECTION program to get an update on our local scouts.
Wright thanked the Bartlesville Regional United Way for all their assistance in making this past year so very successful. With some help from BRUW, 36 of our local scouts were able to attend Bartlesville's first National Youth Leadership Training where $6,000 in scholarships were awarded.
Wright said he is looking forward now to the 2nd Annual Sky Trail adventure that includes running, canoeing and ziplining on Saturday, Sept 14, where 72 participants have signed up so far. That is a 300% increase from last year.
The scouts want to thank the community for using their recycling super bags at their offices at 520 S Quapaw Ave, Bartlesville. Because you choose to use their site for recycling, our scouts earned a gold star for sustainability based in part by the volume of recyclables collected.
