Troop News

The regular Troop meeting tomorrow night (Monday 4/12)) starts at 7:00 PM ..Class B or C is the uniform. Thanks to the Eggers, we will have a guest speaker, Mr. Roger Reid, a writer and producer for "Discover Alabama."

Emails have been coming from Mrs. Kidd regarding the Shelby County Merit badge day this coming weekend. Contact her for late registration, location, and more information (czkidii@aol.com).

Since we haven't heard from anyone (Scouts), we will assume that no one except the Scoutmaster will be attending the Order of the Arrow Regional Conclave (SR-9) this coming weekend in Prattville, If any one changes their mind, they can check the website:Coosa50.org for more information. I can transport two-three scouts w/me and am leaving late Friday afternoon, expecting to return around noon on Sunday. Tents may be available at Camp Tuckabatchee, but will will take Troop tents ourselves.

Not finally, there will be an Eagle Court for J Kunka and R Blackburn and their families on Sunday, May 2, 2010 in the old Sanctuary of the Bluff Park United Methodist Church on Valley Street, Hoover (Bluff Park) 35226 (best routed due to construction is off Valley Street).

The Troop will assemble at 12:45PM for a 1:00PM ceremony with a reception following at 2:00 PM. This is counted as a Troop activity for Scouts working toward the First Class rank. This ceremony commemorates the nearly seven years these Scouts worked on earning the rank. Not unlike a regular Troop Court of Honor, It should be attended by all the Scouts/families in the Troop, especially the 1st and second year Scouts for the experience of what they will have to look forward to when they receive theirs.

The uniform is Class A with Troop neckerchief and merit badge sash.

Thanks in advance for all your support and encouraging attendance.
