We are part of the Etowah District in the Mecklenburg County Council and are sponsored by Matthews United Methodist Church. </p> <p> Our goal is to foster the BSA vision of building our youth into conscientious, responsible, and productive boys by instilling in them lifetime values and developing ethical character traits as expressed in the Scout Oath and Law. We want to create an environment that fosters a sense of community while keeping the fun in scouting. </p> http://www.pack214.com <p> We are turning it up to Eleven this year! Blue and Gold, our annual awards banquet, will be held at Belk Scout Camp in the dining hall. </p> <p> The service project associated with Blue and Gold this year, is to collect for a charity called, HUGS Inc. They are based in Matthews, NC and provide hosipitalized children with stuffed animals for comfort. If you would like to contribute, please bring a new or "very much like new" stuffed animal to the banquet. </p> <img alt="Blue and Gold" src="images/BlueGold2012.png" height="175" width="175" class="imgctr" /> <p> Reminder: Dens, don't forget to show your Den pride by building the most rockin' center piece for your table! </p> <p> <span style="font-weight:bold">When: </span> Saturday, February 11th <br /> <span style="font-weight:bold">Time: </span> 6:00pm - 8:00pm <br /> </p> Sun, 05 Feb 2012 15:00:01 GMT http://www.patriotspoint.org/ <p> I know what you are thinking...Hey webmaster, why are posting information about Super Trip now?
