A paint-and-snack fundraiser will be held to benefit Cub Scout Girls Pack 159 on Sunday, April 3. The event will be held from 2 p.m. to 4:30 p.m. at the Lumberport United Methodist Church.
Brenda Gray, Pack 159 Den Leader for the Bears (third grade scouts) and a pack committee member, said funds raised will offset the costs of membership fees, supplies for badge projects, and activities. She asked those interested to sign up by March 31 so organizers can plan for supplies.
Clarksburg self-taught painting teacher Marsha Greathouse will be leading the class.
The skill level is for 8 and up.
“Participants will get the opportunity of fellowship, refreshments, and learn some painting techniques,” Gray said. “Participants also help shape the future of leaders through their generous participation in the fundraiser.”
Pack 159, a newly forming pack for girls, serves the communities of the Shinnston/Lumberport/Wallace areas. It 159 meets every Friday from 6-7 p.m. at Big Elm Elementary and is open to new participants. –Erin Beck
