Community Service is a big part of scouting. We are all so generous during the holiday seasons, but for many people hunger is a daily problem. Food pantries are in desperate need of supplies during the summer months.

Please consider joining us on Saturday, July 21 at Stop and Shop of Morris Plains to collect food and supplies for the Parsippany Food Pantry. We are in need of four (4) scouts and two (2) adults per hour.

Let's do what we can to help a family in need this summer! If you have any questions, please reach us via email [email protected] or phone 973-437-6163.

 Thank you for helping us support our community!

AOL Den Meeting
Event Date: Thursday, September 6, 2018
Event Time: 7:00PM – 8:30PM
Event Location: Littleton School
Dress Requirements: Scout Uniform
Our AOL Den will be working on requirements for the Arrow of Light rank. This meeting will focus on the Outdoorsman Required Adventure.

IMPORTANT
The AOL meeting and activity schedule has been built to ensure that all AOL scouts are able to complete all requirements for their Arrow of Light Rank prior to the Blue & Gold Banquet in early March, 2019. We understand that families have many different commitments and it may not be possible to attend all meetings. If an AOL scout misses a meeting or other scheduled activity (including camping trips and joint activities with local scout troops) that is directly related to one or more Arrow of Light requirements, it is important that the AOL scout works with his family and pack leadership to complete the missed requirement/s as soon as possible.

If you have any questions or concerns, please email [email protected] or phone 973-437-6163.

Please be sure to RSVP to let us know you are coming. If you have forgotten your TroopTrack login or are not sure how to login and RSVP, please email [email protected] to let us know
