To community businesses, organizations, and individuals,
Scouts BSA Troop 1123, chartered by the New Florence Methodist Church, is looking for help. Our troop has been awarded a spot at the Philmont Scout Ranch in New Mexico for this coming July 2023. Philmont is the premiere high adventure camp operated by the Boy Scouts of America. Each summer, more than 20,000 Scouts from around the country attend the camp, doing backcountry “treks.” Scouts backpack through the high desert and mountains of the southern Rockies, camping and participating in various programs along the way. This is an opportunity that most Scouts never get, and our Scouts are excited for the trip.
This trip will be a great challenge for our small troop. The total cost will be about $2000 per person. Our Scouts have been working hard to raise money in various ways. Now we are looking to do one more big fundraiser before the final trip costs are due in the spring. We are having a basket party on Sunday, April 23, 2023 2-5 PM, at the Sandy Bottom Sportsmen’s Club in Seward.
Would you consider a donation to help our troop make this dream trip a reality? We would welcome donations of gift baskets or items to be given away on April 23. If you would prefer, we would also be happy to receive monetary donations. Donations can be made to Troop 1123 and mailed to the New Florence Methodist Church, PO Box 267, New Florence PA 15944.
If you would like to donate a basket or other item, please contact one of our leaders to arranged for us to pick it up.
Thank you so much for you help and support of Scouting!

United Methodist Mission Work in Ukraine
The United Methodist Commission on Relief (UMCOR) is working to address the needs of refugees from Ukraine. You can help by donating to the international disaster response fund (Advance #982450). You can place an offering in the plate during worship and it will be forwarded through our Conference or you can give online through this web site, but your gift will get there faster if you give directly to UMCOR (www.umcmission.org).
