Troop:

The summer is moving by quickly and school will be upon us very soon.

Because if the school year start being a week early, the PLC Planning weekend was also planned early. However several key scouts are on vacation and away from the area. In addition Camp Big Mac is no longer allowing shooting sports as of a few weeks ago.

In light of the key scout leadership needing to be in attendance and is Mandatory to plan the scout year, please mark your calendars for the new date of August 26 - 27.

I know this is the weekend before school begins, this is the only weekend that I am available before the first day of school and we must plan the year during this time.

At this point, these two days will be abbreviated training and mostly planning. They will also be local - I was trying to arrange to use the church, but that is unavailable. I may host these two days at my home if I am unable to book another location.

This email only applies to youth who hold a position in the troop. It is a Mandatory activity.

If you are unable to attend, let me know.

Patrol Leaders - you should start taking to your patrol about activities they are interested in. I will be sending a few more messages on this topic in the coming weeks.

Hope you are enjoying the summer!

In Scouting,

Mr. Wallace

Joseph Tirre’s Eagle Project

My project is to build a shed for the carts that St. Stephens UMC uses for their food distributions. This will help the church to keep its carts maintained more easily, and make them last longer.
