Boy Scout Troop 180

Specific Need

Troop 180 will use the funds to update our equipment. In the past we have put new tires on our equipment trailer, canoe trailer and fixed the water in the cabin so we can fill our water jugs we take on camping outings. Future needs are to fix the doors on the equipment trailer, get new camp boxes to hold cooking equipment, get more tent stakes for the backpacking tents, and to put lights in our equipment storage area.
