Camp Cherry Valley or BUST

big E has been involved with scouting since he was 8 years old. it hasn't been easy for him, as he has parents who know nothing about scouts. he's had some spurts with great leaders that have helped him advance, and other times without. reaching the rank of eagle is something that has become very important to him. each summer, the scouts go away for a week to a scout camp and work on merit badges and advancement. when they are young, they just stay for the day. now that he's older, it's an overnight camp and he's gone day and night for the entire week. he has missed out on going for the past 2 years. this year he has his heart set on going, hoping to catch up on his badges.

his goal is to attend scout camp in california with his soon-to-be scout troop. they are going to camp cherry valley and they made reservations 3 years ago to get this camp. we have heard they are very excited. he needs to raise $500 by may and is working hard towards this. he has done a fundraiser with his scout troop here, and has made it to $270. we are so very proud of all the effort he has put forth and are confident he can finish up in time. he is selling magnets to anyone wanting to support him in this goal.

the magnets are all hand-made by him with clay and then baked. they range from 1-3 inches in size. he's a great artist and has made a variety of objects - food, animals, sports equipment, etc. there are a few pictures below of what he's done so far. i'll upload more as he makes more. or if you have a special request, just let us know. he already has orders for college letters, so i'll get pics of those up soon. they're selling for $6 each and make great gifts! he'll get to keep about $5 of each to put towards scout camp. let us know how many you would like!
