The troop visited with Ellen Moulder,a member of our ward who is visually impaired. Sister Moulder answered questions about how a visually impaired person handles challenges related to transportation, using a computer and so forth. Scouts then helped with a variety of tasks for which Ellen requested help, including putting braille labels on cans, scanning documents, and setting up the timer on the Christmas lights on her porch. Scouts in attendance completed service hours required for certain rank advancement, as well as requirement 3.2 of the Disabilities Awareness merit badge ("Talk to an individual who has a disability and learn about this person's experiences and the activities in which this person likes to participate.")
Scouts in attendance: Clint Flinders, Matt Housley, Morgan Hunter, Sam Jensen, Ian Pilgrim, Tyler Rife.
Adult leaders in attendance: Taylor Cline, Greg Jones, Dan Williams.
