The Griddle is a gift from Mr. Mario Acosta a Belizean Scout Group

On Saturday July 16, 2022, Executive Director of the Belize Scout Foundation presented a Universal Fry Griddle to the 9th Belize St. Ignatius Scout Unit. The Griddle is a gift from Mr. Mario Acosta a Belizean living in Los Angeles California. Mr. Acosta asked that the Griddle be gifted to a needy Scout Unit so that they may use it during their summer camp this year.
The Foundation thanks Mr. Acosta very much for this donation that will be put to good use by the Natius Scouts during their camping events.
