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

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
