Calling for Scout Leaders!
|
Glenn Springs Academy is working with the Middle Tyger BSA Council to establish a Troop not only for the boys of Glenn Springs Academy, but for the surrounding community. We are looking for dedicated leaders with or without Scouting experience.
If your Scout has gotten older and you are looking to help other scouts, Glenn Springs Academy is a great place to lend your talent and dedication! Call Kyle Boyles for more information: or to volunteer: 864-327-4096
