SCOUT PROJECTS:
We always need things done at the KCOEC. If you are looking for a project toward your Eagle Rank or are just looking for service hours with your troop, we can always come up with something!
We cannot express enough thanks to the Scouts, Leaders, and Parents who have given their support in doing these things!
If you’d like to inquire about doing a project, please contact via e-mail.
Thanks!
