Troop 72 has had the honor of helping the fabulous Images art festival for many years. Held in New Smyrna Beach at River View park each year at the end of January, Scouts patrol the area to offer assistance, information, direct parking and lookout for any problems , including making sure walkways are debris free and trash cans are emptied. The scouts also camp out on premises during this three day event to patrol during the night making sure the art booths are safe.

Fundraisers help buy equipment and supplies for our Scouts, ceremonies, badges, camp ground/ exhibit costs, etc. A HUGE THANK YOU to the Leaders/ Scout Masters and parents who volunteer their time! It takes a lot of time to schedule events, keep books on badges/ advancement, awards, classes, set up ceremonies, conduct meetings, etc...all after working their regular 40 hour weeks! Their dedication to " each one, teach one" will truly make a difference in the future of America!
Keep America Strong!
