An Allegheny Township Boy Scout troop is selling Mother’s Day flowers to raise money for its summer camp trip.

The troop will be back from noon to 5 p.m Saturday.
Prices are 4-inch pots, $5; hanging baskets, $20; a flat, $20. The flowers were supplied by the Kiski Garden Center.
Money from the sale goes toward their annual trip to Mountain Run Camp.
