In February, Troop 29 successfully hosted our first crab feast fundraiser in two years after a hiatus due to the pandemic. The event provided over 300 attendees with a delicious meal of Dungeness crab, pasta, garlic bread, and salad.
Our scouts worked in unison under our Senior Patrol Leader and Assistant Senior Patrol Leader's guidance to set up the gym, including covering the floor with tarps, and setting up tables, chairs, and utensils. With everyone's efforts, we were able to quickly and efficiently set up 31 guest tables and 20 tables for serving and prize baskets.
We were also thrilled to have Taiko perform, and we hope to have them back next year. The fundraiser aims to support Troop 29's upcoming camping trips, service projects, leadership activities, and equipment. As an organization with a long-standing tradition of instilling values of leadership, service, and citizenship in young people, events like this help fulfill our mission. Additionally, a significant portion of the funds raised will go towards Troop 29's quadrennial Japan trip, allowing scouts to experience Japan's culture and traditions.
We extend our sincere thanks to all the attendees and volunteers who made the event possible. We would also like to sincerely thank the Sangha for attending. We can't wait to host next year's crab feast and continue supporting Troop 29’s activities.
