More than 4,000 people will gather in Salina
this weekend to celebrate the 100th anniversary of the Boy Scouts
of America.
The Boy Scouts, Cub Scouts and adult leaders from a 32-county
region in Kansas will be treated to a week of activites, contests
and a concert.
Scouts will begin arriving
Friday, with official opening events beginning Saturday morning.
Salina Mayor Aaron Peck and Kansas State University president
Kirk Schulz – who are both Eagle Scouts – will attend the opening
ceremonies.
The public will be admitted to weekend events for $10. Any
non-Scout young person who wants to participate will be admitted
for $20.
