Troop News

Congratulations to Eagle Scouts E Kidd and J Berry and their families for successfully completing their final Eagle Board last night at the Vulcan District Eagle Boards of Review.    Thanks also to Mr. Chris  Morrow, serving as the Troop's  Eagle Guide, for the time, effort, and assistance in assuring the Troop process is ongoing and successful.  Thanks also to Mr. Greg Stocks, Troop Advancement  Chair,  for assuring the continuity in the Troop's advancement process making these moments as successful as the are.

There are several members of the Troop, both active and inactive members who serve on these Boards....Mr. Mark Branin, Mrs. Cathy  Kidd, Mr. Stephen Smith, Mr. Wes Smith, Mr. Randy Watts, Mr. Richard Griffith, and Mr. Win Jones.  They meet usually once or twice a month with other Board members in the District for reviewing the initial proposals and final completions of Eagle projects.  Their work adds a great deal of depth to the Troop in preparing the Scouts for their projects based on their knowledge and experience of sitting on the Boards and reviewing all the projects presented by the Scouts/candidates.   New members are always welcome and encouraged  to join the Boards as assist in the process while adding depth to our leadership ranks.

Friday, May 10th....Since the Troop gear from last weekend's camp out was still too wet last Monday to take down and pack, it was decided at the PLC and Troop Committee to take it all down tonight (May 10) ....Please come by and help and/or drop you son off at the Hut for about an hour  or so starting at 6:00PM tonight to assist with the take down and storage of equipment.  The more who assist the quicker we we be completed. As always numbers make a difference. Uniform not required.

Saturday May 11th... Troop Yard Sale....current weather forecasts are indicating rain in the morning....however..since we are not sure whether it will be a plan stopper,   we will continue to plan on having the Troop Yard Sale as planned over the past several weeks.....

At this time,  Mr. Camp will be on the site (more than 17 families have pre-registered) an will make that determination and announce the contingency plan..either for a later time or a later date. Thanks again to Mr. Camp for coordinating, planning, and assuring the sale's success.   As we know, the purpose of the sale is to assist you cleaning house,  and more,  to increase the Troop's operation's budget.  Please check your emails for any further information.

Moms...on behalf of the Troop Committee,  have a relaxing,  well earned Mother's day this Sunday.  Thanks for making the Troop as strong as it is with all your leadership, support, and assistance.
