Troop News

The last two weeks have been busy for the Troop with all the activities going on in different directions..

Congratulations to:

Mr Mickey Harbin for being awarded the distinguished Silver Beaver Award. This is the highest award the Council can give for distinguished service to Scouting

Eagle Scout X Quo and his parents for earning the National Eagle Scout Association (NESA) College Scholarship.

Thanks to Dr. Frank Nelson and all his efforts, the Frank Tank is again road worthy for the Troop.

Thanks to all the coordination and work of Mrs Kidd, more than 14 of our Scouts earned two merit badges at the Vulcan District Merit Badge O Rama Saturday.

The Order of the Arrow Coosa Lodge Drum team made up entirely of Troop 21 members practiced this weekend for competition at the Regional Conclave coming up at Camp Drum Georgia, 17-17 April..they will also be competing in the ceremony competition the same weekend.

Thanks to Mr. Simon all of these activities pictures are posted on the Troop Web Site.

Thanks to Mr. Phillips for measuring, planning, and making twenty-five new Scout membership shingles hanging in the Hut for the two new patrols coming in for their first meeting tonight.

Dr. Frank Nelson will be the main speaker tonight among other activities in the Hut. Since the New Patrol's haven't got their red Troop t shirts for the meeting at this time, the uniform tonight will be the tan shirt...
