Greetings Scouts, Scouters, and Parents,
Tomorrow night is Hobby Night, Quinzee Campout Prep, and Planning Meeting for Havasu Falls.
New Family Orientation. Thanks you to everyone that planned, presented, attended, and cooked for the orientation. We feel that the event gives a jump start to the new scouts and parents, and this year's orientation surely did just that. A special thanks for Michael Johnson and Colleen Henderson who really bent their butter knives this year to pull it off. Remember new scouts to focus on advancement toward First Class by:
Quinzee Campout, March 12-14. SMIC is Mr. Trower. Sign up is closed. Campout prep will be March 8.
Patrol Leaders Council, Monday March 15. Regular time. This is not a regular troop meeting. It is attended by the PLC only, which is SPL, ASPL, PL (or APL is PL cannot attend), and Scribe must attend. The outgoing PLC must attend. I am asking, however, that the incoming PLC also attend and observe.
Junior Leader Training, Saturday March 20. 9 am to 12 noon, Lower Fellowship Hall, ELC. Required for all outgoing and incoming position holders. Outgoing train incoming position holders. Class A's please.
Election results. Please see Andy W. if you have questions or concerns about the election results. Results are posted to the secure website here. All outgoing and incoming position holders must attend the Junior Leader Training (JLT).
Emergency Prep Merit Badge - Emergency Response Planning. The troop will be holding a search and rescue night to satisfy the 8a and 8b requirements. Let me know if you need these and stay tuned - we'll be planning the event at the next PLC.
Webelos Crossovers. Mr. Kerber is arranging the crossovers and will have a sign up book at the meeting. The goal would be to have a minimum of 4 scouts and two adults for each crossover. Den Chiefs must attend to receive credit for the position for advancement. Scheduled crossovers are:
CRITICAL DEADLINES AND SIGNUPS - These are in the troop calendar and, as a reminder, in Announcements. Please see announcements.
