Scouts organization is -once again brought to mind. As many people are aware, late this spring and summer several discussions were held in an at- tempt to get leaders for Cubs and Scouts, However, the attempts failed and in one last effort volun- teerb are being sought to .lead these worthwhile groups. The question has been asked if leaders can be of. either sex and the answer is definitely yes. Many women in the community have the ability to be very effective leaders. The organization is also willing to change the evening—reserved- for these groups to accommodate other"comm.unity activities, such as ladies' bowling. If the. Cubs and Scouts fall inactive this year, some consideration is being given to form a general. boy's club, with -one leader and several, assistants. Again either men or women could help here and this would eliminate the search for a leader for . Cubs and another for Scouts. If you you could help in maintaining the Scouting activity for young men, aged 8-14, in our com- munity, please contact Dave Overboe at 523-4416 of any other member of the group committee.
