Kennett Johnson and Richard Andre are graduating from Cubs into Boy Scout Troop 31.
February is the traditional “Boy Scout Month” and Boy Scout Sunday is February 10, observed in churches sponsoring troops.
On that Sunday the “Cub Scout Belirings” will ring the English handbells as part of the prelude before the services at Grace Church at 9:30 and 11:00 A.M.
They will ring “America” and “America The Beautiful”.
The bells are actually fine musical instruments which the boys are serious about playing.
They appreciate that Mr. Porkola gives them the opportunity to ring and that Mrs. Klinefelter directs.
