The invitational was held August 27-29 at Nemacolin Woodlands Resort, and was attended by over 200 vendor partners, 84 Lumber associates, and representatives from the Westmoreland/Fayette County Council of the Boy Scouts of America. Over the past 27 years, with the help of 84’s vendor-partners, the invitational has raised more than $2 million for the southwestern Pennsylvania council, which counts more than 8,000 area residents as scouts, scouting volunteers, or employees of the council.
