Scout Sunday this weekend

We forgot to mention in the last news letter that Scout Sunday is coming up this coming Sunday, February 14th, at the Bluff Park United Methodist Church.

This is also the 100th Anniversary of Scouting, and though it will be mentioned by Mr. Hardy and the P Kidd in their presentations to the congregation, we need a good turn-out in Class A uniform with Troop Neckerchiefs and Merit Badge sashes to complement the occasion.

In the past we have had low turn outs and it is not representative of the normal strength and camaraderie of the Troop. Unless he just can't be there with us, please encourage his attendance. He should arrive at 8:30 AM for the 8:45 service and we are normally finished in an hour.

We've noted that some Scouts aren't wearing their Troop Neckerchiefs to Eagle Courts or other formal events..please encourage them to wear it..if misplaced, we have extras they can purchase for $10.00 at the Hut tonight..They should have one if they don't for formal occasions as well as as permanent memento of their time in the Troop, never mind being in proper uniform for occasions such as these....

If it is cool, he can wear a jacket..but sweat shirts or other long sleeve undergarments under the Scout Shirt or shorts won't be allowed. They have been having sales at the Scout Service Center for Zip Off uniform trousers which can be worn in cold and warm seasons.

Cubs are welcome in the regular meeting uniforms.

If we don't see you sooner...have a happy Valentine's Day.

Thanks for all your support and encouraging attendance.
