Welcome Back

As we begin a new scouting year, remember that without you, the adult, your scout will not succeed! As adults, we let our boys run the troop, guide the younger boys and plan the activities. As adults, we stand beside our boys to help them as needed. If you are not standing beside your scout, please do so! It takes adults to run classes, chair fundraisers, to drive on outings and much more. We need your help. Please talk to Mrs. Chapman or Mr. Vermillion if you can lend a hand!

 

Summer Camp

What an awesome time the boys had at Camp Baldwin! If you haven't heard about it, talk to a scout that went. There were over 80 Merit Badges earned at camp and a lifetime of memories!
 

Calendar

As you scroll through this month's calendar, it is very full. Don't forget to check it weekly to

see what is going on. We know that fall sports are going strong and that many boys will miss all or part of the meetings. Please try to stay on top of your fundraising due dates and permission slip turn in dates for outings!

 

Dues

Just a reminder that your fall 1/2 dues are expected by September 27th. Of course, you can pay it in full if you'd like. $50.00 is what is due for this portion! Thank you in advance for your prompt payments!

 

Court of Honor

September 13th is our Fall Court of Honor. It will begin promptly at 7:00PM. Due to the high amount of Merit Badges we have to get out, please be on time. We hope that all families can make it!

 

New Leader Essentials

If you haven't been trained yet you have a chance to do so this month. September 17th will start the season. Please see your Compass Points for information or call Council.

 

Eagle Creek/Goat Creek Hikes

This weekend is Eagle Creek Hike. Are you going? Have you turned in your permission slip? See Dr. DesJardins if you have any questions. Goat Creek hike is at the end of the month. A great one to go on also. Sign ups should be out tonight!

 

Committee Meeting

Want to see how the adults help the boys? Come to a Committee Meeting. They start at 7:00PM and we try to get done by 8:30PM. This month it is hosted by Carmen Lohkamp.
