Central Scouting to Hold Benefit Dinner

The Friends of Scouting – City of Central campaign is holding their first annual “Pioneering the Future” benefit dinner on Thursday, November 3, 2011. “This is not your typical jambalaya dinner fundraiser. We are planning to host a roast carving station, turkey carving station, seafood bar, refreshments, desserts, and other great foods for our guests,” reports Brockwell Bone, the 2011 Chairman. Special guest speaker is State Senator and Eagle Scout Dale Erdey.

Dinner will be served Thursday, November 3, 2011 from 6 – 9 pm with a short program at 7 pm at Kristenwood Reception Hall on Greenwell Springs Road. Tickets are available for $30 at Bone Marketing (12628 Hooper Road, Suite B), Central Drug Store (Sullivan at Hooper), and Reynerson’s Guns (10044 Hooper Road). Or by mail, checks payable to “Boy Scouts of America”, c/o Bone Marketing, 12628 Hooper Road, Suite B, Central, LA, 70818.

The Friends of Scouting program exists on several geographical levels from National, Council, District, and area. The City of Central is in the Tunica District which is part of the Istrouma Area Council. The 2011 Friends of Scouting – City of Central campaign will fund Scouting program administration, activities, and oversight for Scout units in the City of Central.
