Mark your calendars! Below is the schedule for Jan to June 2014 year.
Be aware calendars subject to change.
Parents: We are always looking for volunteers to teach us a new craft or activity. If
interested, please contact a leader.
Fundraising: Like all organizations, we rely heavily on fundraising events to support
our leaders, pay for camps and special events and help keep membership fees down.
Apple Day and the Elmira Maple Syrup festival are important Elmira-area fundraisers. A
large portion of popcorn sales goes directly to us for our crafts and special events! Even
a few sales per Beaver makes a big difference! Thank you for your support!
