Troop 868 participated in the annual parish picnic at St. Aloysius.  Scouts helped set up game booths, assisted as kitchen helpers, and helped with clean-up.  The troop also erected a rope bridge and staffed two other activities.  It was a long day and a lot of work, but it was fun and a great opportunity for the scouts, both Catholic and non-Catholic, to show appreciation to St. Aloysius for their sponsorship of our unit.
