Greetings!
The Heart of Virginia Council, Boy Scouts of America Key 3: Incoming Council President Chip Phillips, Council Commissioner Tom Wood and Scout Executive George McGovern are holding 3 Virtual Fireside Chats seeking feedback on how we can better serve our units and families.
Lend a Helping Hand
The Heart of Virginia Council needs volunteer help getting our camps ready for the summer. Volunteers can help with various projects that need completing on April 24th and May 22nd. You must register if you plan on helping and time slots are available for each day or you may assist for the full day. We will provide equipment, materials, lunch, snacks, water, and a day outdoors.
Cub Camp Changes
Cub Adventure Camp 2021: Back to the Old West has made some changes, sessions 4, 5, 6, 7 and 8 will no longer be offered.
