Troop News

Remember there is no meeting this Monday due to the Holiday.

Thanks to Mr. Rick Nelms and Christopher, Mr. Camp and Gage, and Mr. Eggers we were able to better section. load, unload, then begin to split a complete, died of old age, more than 100 year old Oak tree near Mr. Camp's home for Troop campfires on September 3.

The Service and Funeral for Mr. Bob Clements, who recently passed, and as reported as a long time Scouter with the Troop, was attended by several hundred family, friends, and associates. The Service was given by Reverend Reid Crotty, Bluff Park United Methodist Church. The Troop, and the BSA, was equally represented and well spoken of for the years he and the family spent with us.

Don't forget that the meeting 13th starts at 6:30 PM for a field trip with the bus to Dr. Nelms Veterinarian Clinic. Those who attended last meeting and will attend this meeting should be close to completing he merit badge for Veterinary Sciences. We will return between 8:00 and 8:30 PM.

The PLC are working on a email network for the Scouts to read what you just read..but unitl that is complete, give your son a copy of this for his information just in case his patrol leader is not keeping him informed.

There is weekend BSA Vulcan District Outdoor Leader Training Program (OLS) coming up soon as earlier noted. If you haven't attended the SMLT or the OLS and you are active with the Troop, please plan on attending. Two of our recent graduates, Mr. Elmore and Mr. Bennett can give you some details. It makes a difference in your perspective on what we are all about.

Please mark your calendars for our September Shooting Sports Trip to Camp Sequoyah (17-19) and for the Scout Expo on Saturday, September 25th, where will will set up our rope bridge, a tent, a tarp, and a charcoal fire at the Brookwook Mall from 10:00AM to 3:00 PM with the other local troops in the area.
