DISTRICT EXECUTIVE ANNOUNCES NEW TELEPHONE NUMBER


Andrew Reale, District Executive for the Long Cane District of the Blue Ridge Council recently announced that he has established a new contact number for the Boy Scouts of America in the Abbeville and Greenwood areas of South Carolina.  He can be reached at 554-3393.  This is a LOCAL cell phone number, replacing his previous cell phone number.  The previous cell phone number required that you call long-distance and might have incurred long-distance telephone charges.


 DISTRICT COMMISSIONER SEEKS ADDITIONAL COMMISSIONERS


Gary Stratton, District Commissioner for the Long Cane District is seeking individuals who want to help make this district and the units within the Long Cane District better than ever before!  Gary is searching for adult volunteers, who are NOT Unit Leaders (Scoutmasters, Cubmasters, Post Advisors), but who may be a parent or a leader who is currently serving in a different position.

Time requirements are minimum, with only a few hours (honest!) per MONTH to be a Unit Commissioner.  Gary is also seeking people to assist with the monthly roundtable meetings.  If interested, please call District Commissioner Gary Stratton at 223-2013 (home) or call his cell phone at 554-9259.
