Dallas Post Dallas, PA Thursday, August 1, 2002 Cub Scouts —— (continued from page 1) “We camped out here all week,” said Brett. “It was great.” Boy Scouts need to perform a certain amount of community service in order to advance from one rank to another. “We give them an opportunity to earn time toward their ad- vancement and seventeen of them also earned the Plant Sci- ence badge,” said Gionfriddo. The Cub Scouts also per- formed community service dur- ing their week. “Every year we have a service project to do,” said Doriann Jolley, a den leader with Pack 232. “This year our project is to clean up the park.” On Friday, before the closing ceremonies, all scouts and vol- unteers donned rubber gloves and picked up litter through- out the state park. To wrap up their week, the scouts and volunteers were treated to a picnic lunch. The Cub Scouts then performed skits and songs to the theme of “Under The Big Top.” Den 7 proudly displayed their flag pro I a : ; Fy 3 i i vr ar Ha claiming them the Raging, Roaring Lions.

According to figures provided by Don Faegen- burg, chairman of the event, the auction took in a total of nearly $100,000 and returned nearly $72,000 to the library. Proceeds are used for oper- ating expenses, and represent nearly one-fourth of the annual requirement. More than $54,000 was collected for items sold over the auction block, with 70 percent of that coming from sale of antique items. The Nearly Olde booth, which was filled with items that didn’t make it to the block, brought in another $6,757. The Book Booth, Food Booth and Odds ‘n’ Ends contributed more than $5,000 each, and the Bas- ket Booth topped $4,000. Two raffles brought in about $4,000. A gas grill donated by Mary Ann Sigworth attracted more than $3,000 in entries and the Auction Quilt, made by the Back Mountain Friendship Quilters, drew more than $900. The auction is an entirely volunteer run event that has been held each year since 1947. It is held the weekend following July 4 each summer. The holiday fell on the Thursday this year, mak- ing the opening night of the four-day event less well-attended than usual. But a rush of bidders on the weekend more than made up for the slow start.
