Greetings!
2022 Charter Renewal is Live!
Recharter season has arrived! Internet Recharter 2.0 went live on Friday, October 15th and will be available for use through Friday, December 17th. The HOVC Charter Renewal page is full of great information and the tools you need to make your recharter a success.
Heart of Virginia Council is proud to announce the Keynote Speaker for the 2022 Friends of Scouting banquet at the Greater Richmond Convention Center on March 1st. Kevin Lacz, decorated former US Navy Seal, sniper, and combat medic who served with "American Sniper" Chris Kyle and was the technical advisor and co-star in the movie, "American Sniper," will join us for what we are sure will be an inspiring evening.
Our 2021 Scouting for Food door hangers will be hot off the presses in the coming days! This year's hangers include a 25% off coupon for Papa Johns, and Heart of Virginia Council will receive $1.00 every time the coupon code SCOUTS is used between November 8th and December 31st. More details will be shared soon!
United Scrap Metal has partnered with Atlantic Constructors to offer a Pop Top & Can Drop Recycling Service Project. Scouts can bring pop tabs and cans to the drive-thru event hosted by AtlanticConstructors, Inc. located at 1401 Battery Brooke Parkway, Richmond, VA 23237 on October 23rd from 9:00 am to 12:00 pm. Each participating Scout will receive a patch for their efforts. Work with your school, family, friends, and church to make this service project opportunity an overwhelming success.
Buy a Pie to Keep Them Dry
The Thanksgiving holiday is fast approaching, and we all know the best part of our family gatherings is the dessert. Stock up on the favorites like pecan, pumpkin, and apple pie, and be everyone's holiday hero when you show up with fruit, French Silk Cream, or Boston Cream pies. Better yet, buy one of each! Your order supports local Scouting by providing new tents for the youth attending programming at T. Brady Saunders.
