Associated with camping and the great outdoors, Scouting groups were forced to go digital for much of the pandemic, as was the case with many facets of life over the past year and a half. Earlier this month, however, marked the first time the Elmira Scouts came together as a group since the lockdowns began.
Cubs, Scouts, Venturers and Rovers watched as three awards were given out September 9 at the Rover den and Scout shed located on Oriole Parkway in Elmira. Among those honoured was long-time Elmira Scout organizer Brian Soehner.
