SUMMARY:Bristol BSA Scouters' Reunion
DESCRIPTION:On June 10\, Connecticut Open House Day\, the Bristol Historical Society will be hosting a Bristol BSA Scouters’ Reunion. Bristol has always been a scouting-enthusiastic city.

Plan to come to the Bristol Historical Society to view a display of Bristol-related scout memorabilia. \nFrom 10am to 2pm\, visit a display of Bristol-related Scout memorabilia. At 2pm\, join us at the First Congregational Church for a live program of fun followed by a cracker barrel social hour. \nVisit the Facebook Group “Bristol BSA Scout History” to get a preview of what is in store for the reunion and please join the group if you like. Contact Steve Vastola at activities@bristolhistoricalsociety.org\, 860-944-6567 or through the Facebook group for more information or to become part of the celebration. \nREGISTER FOR THE EVENT
