Ben,
Lawrence Muruako organizes Healthy Halloween every year for kids and he is looking for volunteers to help with packing the goody bags and also potentially helping with the event from 5.30 to 8pm on Tuesday Oct 31st. Do you think this is something Troop 45 can help with?

Service Hours Oppertunity

Hello All, I hope this email finds you well. For Scouts needing service hours, or just wanting to help out our Charter Organization, First Presbyterian Church is having a clean up day September 11, 2023 from 9am -12pm. Not only is it a good opportunity for service hours, but it is also an opportunity to give back to FOC which has given us Scouts so much. While not required, I do hope to see you there.

Troop Meeting 8/14/2023

Troop Leaders need to be there at 6:30pm General Meeting starts at 7:00pm Class B uniform
Attached is the knot/lashing & skills matrix for August.

PARENTS:

A question often asked is how your parents can help. 

1st parents should have access to the Scoutbook app, or website.  This allows them to follow your progress throughout your scouting tenure. 

2nd you should be discussing things were doing at meetings and campouts with your parents.  Keep them informed and involved in your scouting career. 

3rd teach your parents how to do the scout skills.  If you are working on knots and need to be tested on them, teach your parents how to tie the knots, that way when you go to get tested by your patrol leader you will know the skill.   

Lastly, we will need our parents’ help throughout the year, you can do this by volunteering a few hours of helping stand around during popcorn and football parking.  The boys will be coming to ask y’all for help, please give them a few hours of your time this upcoming year.
