Celia’s Scouting journey began on the brink of history. Her first meeting was March 5, 2020, just days before the world shifted to virtual life. While others might have faltered, Celia grew with the program, transitioning from "tagging along" with her brother’s Cub Scout Pack to carving out her own legacy as one of the [...]
