Court of Honor Tonight (April 11) at 7:30pm

4/11/2016

Don't miss out on our April Court of Honor, tonight (April 11) at 7:30pm. We will be honoring the achievements of our scouts who have advanced in rank or earned merit badges. We will also walk down memory lane, as we recall the exploits of trips past (including a video of the Mt Cardigan Expedition)!

We will also have a visit by our Friends of Scouting (FOS) representative. FOS is the local council's fundraising effort to help support the resources our Scouts need to do Scouting in the area. Please be generous, as your contribution directly helps your scout and scouts in our area.

As always, all family and friends are invited to the Court of Honor. Help cheer on our Scouts!

Snowstorm Linus has blanketed us with another few inches of snow. The treacherous travel has caused us to postpone our February Court of Honor (& troop Meeting), scheduled for tonight, Feb 2.

There will be no Troop events tonight. Please stay safe & warm.

We will reschedule the Court of Honor to next week, February 9 - same time (7:30pm). We will still have a PLC and short Troop meeting on that day.

For anyone who needs to turn in last-minute Ski Trip registrations, please contact Mr. Hamilton.

Please remember to be a good citizen, and help out our Fire department clear out those fire hydrants! Three feet around & down to the ground!

This year we are going to try to do something different with the refreshments following the Court of Honor. In an effort to reduce leftovers, we are going to ask two patrols to help out with refreshments at each Court of Honor this year. For this first one, on September 29th, we are asking the Skyhawks and the Epic Patrols to bring goodies to enjoy following the ceremony. Additionally, we would like to ask that the parents of these two patrols help with setting up the refreshments in the kitchen.
