"We're looking for volunteers." That's from 5th Portage Scouts cub leader Stacy Turner.

Turner presented at the Portage Rotary Club luncheon today and explained their need.

"We talked a little bit about what scouting is all about, and what we do in our community. Basically, we're looking for volunteers. If anyone wants to come help, and if anyone's interested in learning about scouting, there'll be registration coming up soon. So, watch for it."

She shares some highlights from last year.

"We did lots of really unique things last year. We did lots of hiking, and walking, and boat safety, and things like that. We did some camping trips. We went to Rushing River (Provincial Park near Kenora Ontario) -- fun things like that. The kids get to learn lots of neat things about canoes and hiking."

Turner says exchange student Daniel Garcia was involved with them during his stay in Portage last year, on his visit from Colombia. He's a scout in his home country, and went on several trips with the Portage group.
