Service Project are a part of scouting in general. You may ask what is a Service Project?

A meaningful, Project woul be one that would benefit others, such as a community center, a senior center, food bank, oryour charter organization, Boy Scouts, other organizations, ommunity clean-up and other items.

One major program that our Unit does is Soldier Angels. We have adaopted a couple a K-9 teams that have been deployed overseas. We send the cards, acnd packages throughout the year. We also send "care packages" with goodies for the dog and his handler. We always try to send more than enough so thay can share with others in their unit.
