Cub Scout Pack 44 Wants You!
Florida Cub Scout Pack 44, operated by American
Legion Post 1250, invites parents and their son to become
a part of one of America’s leading values-driven organizations.
Cub Scouting is a valuable resource that can help
families accomplish worthy goals while building and
strengthening relationships within the family.
Applications to join Cub Scouts may be picked up at
the Florida Public Library or at the Cub Scout Sign-up
Station, to be held, in the lobby of Golden Hill Elementary
School on Thurs., May 19, from 3 p.m. -5 p.m. The boys
who join the Pack can look forward to attending the May

pack meeting at Gander Mountain for a Fishing Clinic,
marching in the Memorial Day Parade, the Advancement
and Welcome Picnic at Warwick Town Park in June, the
Pack Fishing Derby in July and a visit to the Rhinebeck
Aerodrome in August.
Cub Scouting combines fun with educational activities
and lifelong values. It helps parents to help their boys
strengthen character by learning about ideals like honesty,
bravery and respect. These values help boys make constructive
decisions throughout their lifetimes and give
them the confidence they need to grow and develop.
Pack 44 of Florida always welcomes new Scouts. These boys from Den 7 are pictured with Doris Wright, Master
Gardener, who ran a Junior Master Gardeners program for the boys. They learned about good and bad bugs, composting,
and about the benefits of gardening without pesticides.
Volunteering for A Good Cause
The following was written by a young girl who volunteers
her time at Winslow Therapeutic Center in Warwick:
“My name is Amber Fury. I am a volunteer at Winslow
Therapeutic Center on Saturdays. I am 13 years old and I
enjoy coming here. I get to work with horses all day and my
favorite horse is Diamond. At Winslow, you learn about
horses and new things about them. You learn some riding tips
too! Working as a volunteer is fun. You get to lead, side-walk,
groom and many other things. The staff, instructors, and volunteers
are all very nice and if you need help, people will help
you. Like I said before, being a volunteer is fun and rewarding.”
Winslow Therapeutic Center provides Therapeutic
Riding and Hippotherapy to children and adults with special
needs. The Center offers a wide range of programs
including those designed for people who have autism.
Winslow is always in need of volunteers. For more information,
contact Jaime Phillips at 986-6686.

Lewis Woodlands
continued from page1
and even made the focus of festivals in the Smokey
Mountains of the United States.
Warwick-in-Bloom co-chair Heidi Hamilton, a Master
Gardener, had her colleagues, Master gardeners Bob Savage
and Bob Pioselli, help with the Tour, the History was
offered by Mayor Michael Newhard, and Steve Gross, who
shared his rare collection of photos and postcards of the
Lewis Woodlands.
Maps of the Woodlands were prepared two years ago
by Roger and Susan Metzger and are still available in a box
at the beginning of the trail. More "Awareness" days are
planned to Warwick’s other treasures of public lands.
Nature and Garden people are invited to join Warwick-in-
Bloom or The Warwick Conservancy to help develop public
appreciation of land and land use issues.
