Court of Honor tonight

Don't forget that that the Troop Court of Honor is tonight in the Reid Crotty Fellowship Hall of the Bluff Park United Methodist Church at 733 Valley Street, Hoover 35226.

This is a pot luck dinner, family affair, recognizing all of the rank and merit badges and other activities over the past six months that the Scouts have earned or participated in. If you are not sure what to bring, refer back to a few Troop web site blogs, it is broken down by patrol.
The Court starts at 6:30 PM, unless the Scout is a Venture II (former Grizzly or Hawk patrol member), then he needs to be at the Fellowship Hall at 6:00 to serve as the host patrol and assist with the set up.

In case he forgot, the Uniform for the Scout is "Class A Plus," or the tan shirt, green Scout trousers or shorts, Scout belt, Scout socks, Scout neckerchief or Scout bolo, and merit badge sash ( worn under the epaulette on the right shoulder).

There is a great three times a year program the Scouts have planned, so please bring your copy of it (the agenda) http://www.bluffparktroop21.org/Court_Of_Honor.doc as printed on the Troop web site in an earlier email, and one for the Scout, in case he forgets his own. This will speed things up and remind him of what he may be speaking to.

The purpose of the Court of Honor is to recognize the Scouts, and Leaders, for all the rank and merit badges they have earned, plus other activities/programs they have participated in.
We will also recognize the past six months of Scout leadership and welcome in the next six months of elected and appointed leadership in.

We have many guest speakers (Scouts and Leaders and real guests) and some information to pass out for coming a activities. Mr. Simon will have his usual overhead presentation set up for us as usual also.

Finally, please don't forget to bring your Wreath Sales orders for Dr. Hamilton. They need to be mailed out in the next day or so. Popcorn sales deadlines are also coming up quickly.
Wishing you had an opportunity to drive the bus? See Dr.Hamilton or Mr. Young tonight for the opportunity of a life time.

This has been an exceptional past six months for the Scouts...let's recognize them for it and have the best of times also. Make it a memory.

Thanks for all your support...
