Boy Scout Troop 115 will host its 12th annual All You Can Eat Pasta Dinner at St. Michael’s Church Hall, located at 350 North Broad St., from 11:30 a.m. until 6 p.m. on March 20.

On the menu is pasta with meatballs, bread, salad and cake. The cost is $8 for adults, $4 for children ages 6-12 and children 5-years and under eat free. Carry out is also available. A 50/50 raffle and silent auction for baskets will be available for attendees. Troop parents and scouts will be volunteering throughout the day.

The dinner is the largest fundraiser of the year for the troop and proceeds are used to send the scouts to summer camp for a week and other camp-outs on weekends throughout the year.

The 21-boy troop, led by Scoutmaster Andy Welch, participates in many local projects and activities, such as the Canfield Fourth of July Parade, installing and removing flags in Canfield for the Rotary and various community service projects as they arise. Recent Eagle projects are the walking trail at Canfield Presbyterian Church and the Austintown Fitch High School Veterans Memorial.

“We have a great group of scouts and they work very hard to make this day a success. Please come out and help us support our scouts’ goals of camping. We have many people that say that we have the best tasting sauce,“ Welch said.
