Why – FAME, the Foundation of Art and Music in Education serves 10 of the counties in the Anthony Wayne Area Council. The FAME Festival showcases performing music groups and artwork from area elementary schools. In years past, up to 20,000 students, parents, family members, educators, and others have attended the Festivals. It is an ideal venue not only for Scouts to serve our community but also for us to get the word out about scouting. Details at www.FAMEArts.org
We would also like to have a tabletop presentation of Cub Scout crafts, games, activities, etc. presented by Webelos and Cub leaders. This would be set up in the lobby.
Please set up a sign-up site for this event.
