The Boy Scouts of America, Iroquois Trail Council, is pleased to announce the Grand Opening of its Volunteer Service and Training Center, located at 102 S. Main St. in the Village of Oakfield on Saturday, Dec. 14.
Doors will be open from 1 to 5 p.m. A commemorative ribbon-cutting ceremony will be held at 1:30 p.m.
The Council secured the location following an exhaustive search of properties in and around the Batavia area, which is central to its five-county service area.
The property provides ample grounds for an outdoor training area where leaders can learn the basics of outdoor teaching methods.
Although a significant lead gift helped to make the Service Center purchase possible, the Council is seeking contributions to help make the space fully functional.
For information about named gifts and other giving opportunities, please contact McMullen at 585-409-5828.
