Cub Scout Pack 638 and Girl Scout Troop 3785 enjoy
time on the Grangeville Tubing Hill. With two hours of fun ahead, they
made their way down the slope with lots of hollering and good memories.
The exchange students in our area were able to enjoy this experience also.
Thank you Dan and Laurie Karel and host families for giving the students
an opportunity they won’t forget. The hill was mighty slick to start out
with. We had to do a little foot dragging so we didn’t shoot over the end
of the run. Also thanks to Scott and Audra Wasem who support these kids.
Scouts shown are Caleb Butler, Cole Martin, Hunter Chaffee, Matt &
Jared Coppernoll, Carson Schmidt, Travis Alfrey, Anthony Karel and Ciara
Chaffee. Exchange students were Sidney Camara and Neto Laudenor. The top
photo shows all the area exchange students with Sidney and Neto in the
middle flanking the girl in the white coat. Sidney is on the right. The
lower photo shows the local Scouts. Photos by Shari Chaffee. Click on the
