Troop News

We had a great turn out for B Garrett's Eagle project...His his plan was to place 31 signs up in the Moss Rock Park and he got up 21 concreted in..will finish the others tomorrow with another crew....it was the first time we ever saw two horses and a mule working on a Eagle Merit badge..they helped carry all of the required equipment and tool...including the cement and lumber...

The mule, Ruth, wandered off and after a brief search, we found her at the end of Sevier Rd trimming a lawn....the Hoover PD and Fire Dept were glad to see the signs up as they are going to attach numbers so that when a person has an emergency in the park, they can tell the emergency service what marker they are near for a response.... Thanks to all the Scouts and leaders who attended.to make it as successful as it was.

The Annual Cub Pinewood Derby at the BPUMC was never better attended and operated better than ever thanks to Mr. Cox, Mr. Stocks, and Mr. Turner's efforts as well as all the other leaders who assisted.

Mr. Dean Sessaman's memorial and funeral was also well attended and represented by Scouters and Scouts alike today at 11:00 at his church on Lakeshore as well as at the service at Elmwood where he was buried. He had actively served as a leader for more than 40 years.

Thanks for all your support and for encouraging attendance.

Our next meeting is Monday night at the Hut.
