Scouts
Seven scouts of the Bruin Patrol in local Scouting Troop 223 spent quality time with residents of Atria Park on the afternoon of Saturday, January 14. COVID-19 has made these opportunities for youth to engage with seniors scarce; this being one of the first such outings.
The scouts helped by chatting with the residents about their daily life and setting up a game session of bingo. A unique association was made with one of the residents, who is the grandmother of three Troop 223 Eagle Scouts who were also champion bagpipe players.
In bingo, Table 1 swept the session with four consecutive wins. Rewarding fun was had by all.

Ambassadors
The Palisades Charter High School Ambassadors are an amazing group of students who deserve to be recognized for all the work they do in our community. The article in the Palisadian-Post was so well done covering how they are truly helping hands. Thank you very much.
I have been a member of the Palisades Optimists Club for many, many years. Every time we have asked for the Ambassadors’ help with one of our local projects (for example, the Fourth of July parade, the YMCA track meet, distribution of track meet T-shirts and many more), they have shown a high level of enthusiasm to contribute, serving in every way needed.
I certainly thank them for all they do for Pacific Palisades projects.
