Troop 14 Now Has a Facebook Page

We invite you to join the Troop 14 Spring Lake group page on Facebook. A few of you have already noticed that it went online this evening.This FB group is where we'll post pictures, one-off updates (such as lost and found items, changes to pick-up or drop-off times, etc.), and other items.

The Group page will only be visible and available to scouts, parents, and volunteers until June 1st. After that date, the security changes will be set to hide the group from the larger Facebook community.

If you have any questions about this, please contact the Communications Chair.
