Crafts Plus What’s that?
Mr. Saeger and Mr. Gengler like crafts and have shared this interest through the years with many scouts and adults who wanted to learn more about basket making, paracord bracelet making, weaving, leather crafts, bead work, etc. to create the piece or project they had in mind.
Scouts that want to participate would need to have a parent accompany them to make sure we have enough adult supervision for scout safety. If you are a parent of a scout and just you would like to do this...you are not required to bring your scout. :)
There is a sign-up sheet for those interested and custom projects are welcome.
If this sounds interesting click here for the details. Check out the projects and sign-up.
