This year’s Blue and Gold Banquet will be on Sunday 3/14 from 4:00-5:00 in the Salem United Methodist Church Sanctuary. No meal this year, due to the COVID precautions. Everyone needs to wear a mask.

The Blue and Gold Banquet is where each scout will receive their rank advancement. If you have makeups, please have them turned into your Den Leader no later than 3/9 so we will have enough time to get everything purchased.
