Recycled Raingutter Regatta POSTPONED due to wildfire smoke advisory!

Hello Pack 310 families,
Due to an air quality advisory from the wildfire in Santa Clarita, as well as the excessive heat, we are postponing the Recycled Raingutter Regatta to Saturday, August 6th from 10am-noon.

We apologize for the inconvenience and last-minute notice, but our first concern is keeping our scouts and their families safe and healthy. Children are advised to stay indoors to avoid breathing in the pollutants and ash from the fire. 

To read the current smoke advisory, here is the link: ftp://ftp.aqmd.gov/pub/globalist/Advisory.pdf
 
For more information on wildfire air quality and children, follow this link: http://www.aqmd.gov/docs/default-source/publications/fact-sheets/fire-safety-alert-for-children-english.pdf?sfvrsn=2

Please continue to collect your boat building materials and we will see you August 6th!
