Hopefully Crew members can participate in the race or, if you would rather just help out, do community service by helping with the race. 

Alyssa is contacting the San Antonio Food Bank to coordinate a service project in the month of March. More details to follow. 

There is a hike scheduled for April 23 in Government Canyon and the Crew will have a Lock-In that night at the Scout Lodge. Michalea volunteered to be Activity Chair for the Lock-In.
