Scouts plan fund-raiser for camp

Two area Boy Scouts will stage a casting competition Saturday during Chingawassa Days to help raise money for them to attend scouting’s National Jamboree next summer in Washington, D.C.

Dylan Goebel and Justin Barr, both 14 and of Marion, will run the competition for adults and older children from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. at Luta Creek Stage in Central Park.

Competitors will attempt to cast onto targets on a hill, Troop 102 committee member Caroline Kelly said.

The jamboree, celebrating 100 years of scouting, will be 10 days in July 2010. Cost including travel is estimated at $2,200 per scout.

Kelly said additional fundraisers are likely in the future, including dinners.

Goebel’s parents are Bryce and Val Goebel. Barr’s parents are Garry Klose and Caroline Kelly.
