Help save McGrath State Beach

As you are probably well aware, McGrath State Beach/Park, located in Ventura, is slated for closure on September 6th due to budgetary constraints.  This is a beloved location for Scouts from all over Southern California.  In today's Los Angeles Times is an article about a way in which the park could receive the funding that it needs in order to be spared.  Coca-Cola has a contest for voting for America's Favorite Park, and currently, McGrath is #6.  We need to record as many votes as possible to preserve this beloved Scouting venue.


When the map pops up, enter "McGrath" in the search line, then click on the voting button to register the vote.

Not only should Scouters vote, but all friends, family and acquaintances.  Time is of the essence, so please encourage everyone to vote today.

Yours in Scouting,

Jay Kenney
Assistant Scoutmaster
Troop 1, West Los Angeles
