The Flaming Piranhas Invade Boy Scout Troop 344

Boy Scout Troop #344, sponsored by Waynedale United Methodist Church recently welcomed a new patrol to their ranks. The members of the patrol chose the name Flaming Piranhas as their patrol name and totem. The Flaming Piranhas patrol is made up of boys that recently crossed over from Cub Scout Pack #3344 to Boy Scout Troop #344; Walter Pressler Jr. is their patrol advisor. The boys crossed over just in time to hit the deadline for signing up to attend Summer Camp at Camp Chief Little Turtle at Pleasant Lake, Indiana approximately 50 miles north off Interstate 69.

The troop is inviting other boys in the Waynedale to come join their ranks and go camping with them. Boy Scout ages are from 11 to 18.
