Scout Troop 281 began its annual Christmas tree lot fundraiser on Nov. 27. The scouts will be selling farm-fresh Christmas trees at the lot at Trinity Presbyterian Church, 156 Florida Park Drive, Palm Coast. everyday while they last.
The lot will be open Monday-Friday, 5-9 p.m.; Saturday, 9 a.m.-9 p.m.; and Sunday, 11 a.m.- 8 p.m.
The scouts work the lot and learn skills along the way, Scoutmaster Nate Prince said. The money they earn helps cover the cost of summer camp and other merit badge opportunities.
Three scouts from the troop attained Scouting's highest rank of Eagle Scout during the past year, while three other scouts have completed their Eagle projects and are finishing up requirements to earn their Eagle Scout rank.
