"OSG is the perfect scout group for my family," said AJ Brekus, group treasurer and Rover, whose daughter is an Otter scout. "We had been looking for a group that was inclusive, secular, and not too rigid. 72nd Aspens lets kids be kids and gives them opportunities to explore outside, work as a team with their peers, learn new skills and make new friends.”
