Restoring The Villiage

Restoring The Village

Thursday, April 25th, 2024, West Palm Beach Marriott 1001 Okeechobee Blvd. West Palm Beach | 6:00 pm  

You are cordially invited to join the Gulf Stream Council, Boy Scouts of America, as we proudly host our inaugural Restoring the Village Gala on Thursday, April 25, 2024. Our Gala will feature the prestigious national Whitney M. Young Jr. Service Awards and William H. Spurgeon III to recognize extraordinary service by individuals or organizations for developing and implementing Scouting opportunities in rural, lower-income, and urban areas. The Restoring the Village Committee has planned an elegant evening with appetizers, a plated dinner, a full bar, inspirational speakers, and live entertainment. 

The Gulf Stream Council relies upon financial sponsorships to continue our Scouting mission. These sponsorships fund life-changing programs that develop social skills, self-esteem, and character. In addition, financial contributions also help Scouting participants develop as community leaders, become stronger family members, and build neighborhoods as better places to live.  

We are asking for your support. Please consider participating at one of the sponsorship levels outlined on the next page. We hope to see you at the Gala, but contributions may be provided even if you or your organization cannot attend our event. To recognize your commitment, all financial sponsors will be highlighted on our web page, social media and during the Gala. 

Our community indeed relies on the generosity of donors to make Scouting programs a success. Thank you in advance for your sponsorship! 

Sincerely, The Restoring The Village Committee,

Kevin Anderson, Esq., Chair
