Hello Scouts,

Week two patrol challenge winners were the combined Panini Monkey and Pyromaniac patrols. Next week fire building and first aid challenges.

Congratulations:

Shelby – Star Rank

On to the update:

1) September 21 – SPL Elections – any scouts interested in being our next SPL, should talk to Mr. Wilcox. As a reminder, candidates must have completed NYLT. Also any scouts who would like to be ASPLs, should speak to me to be considered.

2) September 21st – PLC after meeting. All troop leadership is required to attend and all non-leadership is highly encouraged to attend.

3) September 29 – Oct 1 – District Camporee. Super fun district campout with a day of competitions (that we ruled last year). Highly encourage all scouts to attend.

4) October 27 – 29 – Potential additional campout at Peaceful Valley. This was not on the original plan, but because the Camporee is in September rather than October, we have an opening. We will hold the campout if there is enough interest.

5) We need scouts to be Den Chiefs for the cub scout dens. This is a good leadership position for scouts who need leadership for rank advancement. The requirement is to attend typically one den meeting and one pack meeting each month. Please, talk to Mr. Wilcox if you are interested.

6) Remember to wear your CLASS A UNIFORM next week. Starting in September, we will be enforcing that scouts are wearing uniforms to all of the meetings. If a scout does not wear their uniform, they will not be allowed to participate in the game during the meeting.

I think that’s all for this week. Thank you all.

Mr. Wilcox
