Thank You for Supporting the Scouts’ Spring Tulip Sale!
Thank you to everyone who supported our Scouts’ Spring Tulip Sale! Your generosity helped make possible a special visit to CareOne Assisted Living, where our Scouts spent time with the residents, made decorative bracelets, and presented seniors with a cheerful tulip to brighten their day. Your support brought joy not only to our Scouts but also to the wonderful seniors they visited.
