“This is an opportunity for Ocean City residents to clean out their closets prior to the holidays, while donating to a worthy community youth activity,” said Scoutmaster Dean Mitzel.
Ocean City Boy Scout Troop 32 was chartered in 1964 by Ferguson-Foglio VFW Post 6650.
The troop offers a year-round adventure-based program designed to encourage effective character, citizenship, and fitness training for boys age 11-18.
Boy Scout meetings are held Tuesday at 7 p.m. at First Presbyterian Church at 701 Wesley Ave. in Ocean City.
