Everyone,

Mr. Carter has been busy adding event photos to the web site. To see what is available, click on Photos in the left-hand navigator and then choose the year you would like. Once you select the year you want, then click on the event. After the thumbnails appear, click on a thumbnail to see a larger picture. If you would like the full size version, click the All Sizes link right above the picture, then click the Download the Larger Size link.

If any adults need CPR training to keep current on one of your certifications, please send me a note. There should be a class coming up soon that a friend with Troop 168 is setting up.

The Roadrunner district is hosting a Trainer's EDGE training session on Saturday, August 8, from 8:30 AM - 4:00 PM at the council office. This is designed to help Scouters understand the EDGE training model. The cost is $15. Please see Mrs. Barker if you could like a registration form.

We still need many more folks to sign up for M. Purdy's Eagle Project - Part 2 and R. Shafer's Eagle Court of Honor. Please sign up soon so that proper planning can be done.

I have added several new events that are available for signup through the end of the year. Here is the list of new items:

September 11-13: Fall District Canoe Race at Worth Ranch

September 25-27: Leadership Campout probably at Hills and Hollows

October 16-18: Score-O Orienteering Competition at Sid Richardson

November 13-15: Zip Line Campout in Austin. This is still being arranged and is subject to change.

December 11-12: Electronics Campout/Cub Scout Open House

December 18: Laser Quest Lock-in. We have to have at least 30 scouts signed up for this event to take place.

Since some of these event are still being planned, they are subject to change. The recharter and popcorn dates on the calendar are also subject to change. They were based on 2008 dates.

I will be out next week. If you have any urgent web site updates, please send a note to Jeff Carter.

THANKS!
