Sunday School Happenings Wands for Wildlife Even though The Northern Virginia Ethical Society doesn't meet in the Summer, your Sunday School Team is hard at work planning a great school year! Ethical Sunday School students undertake at least 1 service project every month. We use our labor, our creativity, and our collective effort to make our world a better place while acting out our ethical culture values. This year, we are asking for your help in collecting Wands for Wildlife. We know that you will need time to use up this household item so we are asking you to clean out your makeup drawers and use up your current cosmetics over the next few months. From September thru Earth Day, we will be collecting your old mascara wands for a mass shipment in April to support the Appalachian Wildlife Refuge's Wands for Wildlife Campaign.

The NOVES NaviGATORS visited a lovely local state park in Lorton, VA called Mason Neck State Park and earned their Geocaching Badge! 5 scouts, 2 leaders and 1 pampered pooch participated in a free Geocaching class and expedition. GPS devices were provided and 2 informative State Park Interpreters took us on a long hike thru the park. We found 3 Geocaches, signed the log book, and exchanged some trinkets. It was like modern day treasure hunting! This is a fun way to get outside and enjoy nature! If you would like to learn more about Geocaching, please visit this website for an informative video and links to an extensive FAQ section! Find your own buried treasure today! | Upcoming Events
