After missing it last year due to COVID concerns, our 26th Halifax Beavers Cubs Scouts and Ventures were excited to be able to hold their annual Apple Day Campaign Saturday at Point Pleasant Park. Apple Day is an opportunity to make the public aware of by giving away apples. Donations are accepted and help support our Scouting programs. This was a great event for all and we made ourselves known to the community. Big thanks to the public who took the time to talk to our youth and for all the generous donations. Thanks to the youth, parents and leaders for helping make this a wonderful day! 26th Halifax Beavers, Cubs, Scouts and Ventures rock!
