Hi everyone,
- Next Troop Meeting – Monday, May 6 - 7:00-9:00 pm – School Hall – EARLY START!
We had excellent attendance at this week’s meeting. 19 out of 20 active Scouts were there! Great job everyone! These training sessions will make us a better Troop.
We will be doing the second of three installments of Troop Leadership training.
Dinner (hot dogs and chips) will be ready at 6:45 for the guys who arrive early. We will start the training promptly at 7:00 and conclude by 9:00.
Class A uniform for all Scouts and Leaders! You will need your neckerchief for the training.
If you aren’t in your Class A uniform, we will send you home and you will miss the training – and the hot dogs! Gack!
