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!

What word in the English language does the following:
The first two letters signify a male, the first three letters signify a female, the first four letters signify a great person, while the entire word signifies a great woman. What is the word?

The first Scout to respond correctly will win one genuine, made in the USA, authentic American dollar bill! Remember to copy a parent or your response will be invalidated and tossed into the virtual waste basket, and you will be chased by killer bees.
