BSA Troop 344 Community Service Resource Guide

Community Service Resource Guide
This is not by any means an exhaustive list of parks and facilities that can benefit from a service project, or the gift of time in the way of service hours. Hopefully, this can be a point at which to start looking for ideas for projects and service hours that will benefit the communities within the boundaries of the Occoneechee Council.

Please keep in mind that when working with these facilities that all established guidelines for service projects and/or service hours must be followed. It is also important to know the rules and policies set by the facility and/or institution for which the project or service hours are being performed.

Service Hours
This is a list of organizations in the community that can benefit from volunteer work. Time spent to the benefit of any of these organizations would qualify as service hours for scout advancement.
