Scouts and Scouters,
Congratulations to all the scouts for the impressive amount of recognition awards handed out at the recent Court of Honor. Participation patches, merit badges and a bunch of rank advancements. Way to go!
The celebration concluded with a excellent pot luck dinner. Thanks to all for bringing a item to share. Also, new COH photos have been posted to the web. Check out your son getting his awards.
We also had a introductory presentation on the 2013 National Jamboree. This is a good time to think about signing up for this event. The word event doesn’t really capture the scope. For example our outstanding spring or fall camporees has attendance in the 200-300 scout and scouter range. This Jamboree is more like 40,000 and will be held in the new high adventure base in West Virginia. If it has to do with with scouting, it will be at this Jamboree. The Jamboree is so special it is held only once every 4 years. Contact the scout office for details and available spots.
Remember the next scout leadership and troop committee meetings are being held on Monday December 19.
The next troop meeting will be on January 4, 2012, Elliott School.
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year.
Mr Sikora
