Scouts and Parents:
Just a reminder that this week we will have three important activities going on of note.
1. Popcorn turn in is this Tuesday night. DON”T FORGET!!! Any un-sold product MUST be returned and check-in to Mr. Dool. [Any parents that can help with this activity is greatly appreciated by Rob] If you need any popcorn products to fill orders please be patient and wait until the end of the meeting to find out if it is available by someone else bringing it back as an unsold item. All money should also be turned in from items sold. Any questions – let me or Rob Dool know.
2. The week will be our Troop Elections. Very important event in the operation of our troop. Our past group of scout representing the PLC under the leadership of Hunter Stewart as the Senior Patrol Leader have done an excellent JOB! Scouts please make sure to thank them for their service. With that said, we will need to have a new group for the PLC; Senior Patrol Leader, Assistant Senior Patrol Leader, all Patrol Leaders and Assistant Patrol Leaders will be reset within our troop. Any scout that is first class and above can run for SPL. Those that are Second class and above with good grasp of getting First Class soon can run for Patrol Leader positions. Other positions will be appointed as needed. Please be in attendance to elect your new PLC!
3. This week we will also be doing a practice hike for preparation of our back packing trip. The hike will be about 1 mile in length. Please plan to bring your back pack with at least 20-25% of your body weight in the pack. It does not necessarily need to be the right stuff but I am looking for you to be able to see what it is like to carry that much weight and to find out if your pack is adjusted correctly. The right gear choice for the backpacking trip will be discussed at the 11/13 meeting. Each Patrol will have to come up with a menu and get the food for the outing on your own. [maybe first line of business for new patrol leader.] If you do not have a back pack and would like to try and barrow one of the ones that the troop has let me know. I only have about 3-4 to loan out.
The Newly elected PLC will also have the planning PLC meeting for December this Thursday, 11/8 at 7:00 PM – at the church.
The newsletter and permission slip for this month’s campout will be out tomorrow night.
That is all for now - see you on Tuesday night!
Sincerely,
Kirk Bohanan
Scoutmaster Troop 136
