Troop 4 Grapevine, Texas   Troop 4 gratefully acknowledges the contributions of its Adult Leaders who make our activities possible.

March 14, 2009
 
Everyone,

Just a reminder that we will not be meeting this Monday due to Spring Break. If you are traveling, have a safe trip. We will meet again on Monday, March 23, 2009.

There will be a mandatory summer camp parent's meeting on Monday, March 23, 2009, on the lower level of the Bessant House. At least one parent of those that have a scout going to summer camp are expected to be there to discuss the transportation for summer camp.

Young Mr. Lippert needs several more scouts and adults to sign up to help with his car wash to raise money for his Eagle Scout project. The car wash will take place on Saturday, March 21, 2009, from 8:00 AM to 12:00 PM. This will count as service time as well as non-troop/patrol meeting for those needing more activities for Second Class and First Class. The sign up form is on the calendar.

We also need more scouts and adults signed up for the Pioneering campout on March 27-29. There is not enough adults signed up for supervision and transportation. The Pioneering campout was a lot of fun the last time we had it. This sign up form is also on the calendar.

THANKS!
