Editor:

We are once again in need of the help of The Register’s readers to help us equip the scouts who are joining our discovery program. We have experienced a positive growth of 40 percent since we first asked you for help. We are in desperate need of 16-foot to 18-foot canoes for our troop. We are growing and so is the interest in our outdoor discovery program, which is why we are asking for help. Our goal is to provide opportunities for boys in the surrounding communities (Arundel, Kennebunk, Kennebunkport, Lyman, Sanford, Springvale and Wells) between the ages of 11 and 21 to experience the great outdoors. We are also in need of kayaks, paddles and life jackets. We are able to repair canoes and kayaks that are in need of some work. We are willing to provide tax credit statements for all donations of canoes and kayaks. Please contact me at 282-2851 or email ptasch@localnet.com. Thank you for your support!
