HELPFUL NEWS: To improve communications, the Three River’s District has decided to deliver a weekly email to the all Troop Scout Masters and Pack Cub Masters in our district. It is intended to be brief and contain information that is important to you, the scouts, and parents. We are building the email distribution list in a new tool called Double Knot. We hope you find the information helpful and use it to enhance your quality program.
