November 12, 2009
 
Everyone,

The ZIP line activity for this Saturday has been postponed due to a number of participants being involved in the playoff football game this weekend. It will be scheduled for another date, but the date hasn't been chosen at this time.

The popcorn pickup for those that sold popcorn this year has been moved from Sunday to Monday, November 16, 2009. This will be at the at the church during the normal meeting time. Popcorn money will still be due by Monday, December 7.

There will be a parent's meeting on Monday, November 16. This meeting will be to discuss simple ways parents can get involved to help out the boys. Snacks will be served.

If you are planning on attending the Laser Quest lock in coming up in December, please sign up soon. 30 scouts and some adults are needed to make the event happen.

Sea Scouts / Venture Crew Interest Meeting

On Monday, December 7, there will be a meeting to determine the scout and adult interest in starting a Sea Scout Ship and/or a Venture Crew. This meeting will take place during the normal troop meeting. The minimum requirements to join Venturing is 14 years old and completed the 8th grade, however, those that are currently in the 8th grade are also welcome to come to this meeting since they will be eligible in a few months. All those that would like to learn about these programs are encouraged to come to the meeting. It is recommended that a parent come with the scouts. If you have any friends that might also be interested, you are welcome to bring them with you. I believe we already have an adult female adviser, so this unit can also be co-ed.

THANKS!
