Cub Scout rocket launch is fast approaching

BOONE COUNTY – All newly recruited and existing Cub Scouts in Boone and Winnebago counties are invited to attend the local Cub Scout Rocket Launch event at the Boone County Fairgrounds on Saturday, Oct. 24 from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. Scouts can come anytime during the event to launch their rocket.

We will hold the launch on the East side of the grounds near the McKinley Avenue entrance.
Designed for boys ages seven to 10, Cub Scouting combines outdoor activities, sports, academics, and more in a fun and exciting program that helps families teach ideals such as honesty, good citizenship, and respect.

The Boy Scouts of America is comprised of more than one million volunteers working together for the sole purpose of helping its nearly three million youth succeed in life.
