Fall camporee

Hello everyone, I hope this finds you well. The fall camporee is fast approaching, October 3-5. This is our centennial campout, 100 years of scouting for our council. The cost of this is 30$. We need to know who is going by Monday night at the meeting. You can pay Venmo, card, check or cash.
There are also some other things your scout can purchase for the camporee. Shirts cost 25& and hats cost $15. There is also a pancake breakfast for 8$. For any of these extras you will need to log on to the council website and purchase yourself. If you have any questions please let me know.

New neckerchief

Please have your scout bring their new neckerchiefs to the meeting with them tonight. We are going to teach them the friendship knot

Information

Hello everyone, I wanted to let you know about the troop. The boys have taken a huge step forward in running the troop. The boys will be putting the majority of information out at meetings and through texts with each other. The senior patrol leader is in a group message with all of his patrol leaders and they should be reaching out to all the scouts in their individual patrols. Each patrol leader should have relayed the information about car parking and popcorn sales. They will reviewing that information tonight and updating each week. If a scout misses a meeting they need to get in contact with their patrol leader to find out what’s going on. Please talk to your scouts about what they are doing at meetings and when they have activities planned. We will continue to update the calendar and the website. Let me know if you have any questions or concerns. Thank you Benjamin Stepp Scoutmaster
