We often think of heroes and how they shape the lives of others in what they do. We take for granted that there are heroes that walk among us each and every day. Heroes change lives, and at Pack 219, we are fortunate to have many people who step up on a daily basis to help us. I would like to take a moment to recognize some of these folks for their incredible generosity to our scouting program. The following people and organizations have gone above and beyond in their support of Pack 219.
Glen Alpine United Methodist Church, Thrifty Mart, Doogie's Pizza and Subs, Carolina Ribbon Crafts, GAUMC Methodist Men, GAUMC Methodist Women, Larry Saunders, Doug Pitts, Steve and Judy Byrd, BJB Sports, Town of Glen Alpine, Jerry Causby, Glen Alpine Police Dept, Glen Alpine Fire Dept, Burke County Office of Emergency Management, Burke County EMS, West End Fire Dept, Capt.

Sincerely,
Tom Dula
