WAY TO GO WAYNEDALE!

July 7, 2004 The Waynedale News Staff

The Scouts from Troop #44 would like to express their gratitude to the many Waynedaler’s that contributed items to the Troop’s Garage Sale. It went just fine and enough funds were raised to help some of the Scouts get to Camp and to provide capitol funding for further activities that the Scouts are planning.

A very sincere Thank You Waynedale,

for helping out so generously!

Troop #44
