Hi everyone,

- Next Troop Meeting - August 25 - Gym - 7:00-9:00 PM

We will be wrapping up last minute advancements and preparing for the Court of Honor.

Class B uniforms for everyone!

- No Meeting on Labor Day - Monday, September 1

Enjoy the long weekend with family and friends!

- Fall Court of Honor - Monday, September 8 - 7:00 PM

We have been very busy with rank advancements and merit badges, especially since summer camp, so there will be much to recognize.

Please plan to come out to support your son in Scouting.

- September 26-28 Camping Weekend - White Pines Forest State Park

We have invited the Arrow of Light Scouts from Pack 3965 to join us on this trip. It will help them complete their Arrow of Light requirements and will give us a chance to demonstrate how the Troop camps out. We will begin preparing for the trip after Labor Day and the Court of Honor.

- Survival Quiz

Test your skill on this survival quiz. Send your answer to me (and copy a parent!). Answers not copied to an adult will be used to line a birdcage! The first three Scouts with the correct answer will win a life-saving prize!

Your small plane has hard-landed in the wilderness. The items below are in the plane. However, your arm is cut up and possibly broken so you can only carry one item. Which one do you take?

• • Flashlight
  • Box of matches
  • Candy bar
  • First-aid kit
  • Trash bag

Good luck!
