Email from Brother Allen - October 20th, 2014

Hello Scouts and Parents,

 

Troop Website:          bsatroop499.blogspot.com.

 

I've heard from about half of you on the Winter Lodge event. Thank you for that.  For the rest of you that haven't responded yet, I need to get an idea if this time will work for most of the troop or if we should look at a time towards the end of February.  Please respond quickly so I can pick the best time and get the troop reserved before there are no more spots available at the BSA Winter Lodge.  The scouts always love this event! Thank you.

 

 

Parents:  I need your feedback ASAP on whether or not your scout would be able to go to the Winter Lodge at the end of the Holiday break.  We would leave Friday Jan. 2nd at about 4 PM and returnSaturday Jan. 3rd at around 4 PM. Please let me know if your scout would be available to go or not available to go ASAP.  Thank you.

#2                    We will not be having scouts Wednesday Oct. 29th because of the Youth Temple Trip scheduled for Saturday Nov. 1st.  Please meet at the church @ 4 PM.  As always, the Temple is a great place to be so make it a priority to attend.  We only get two of these experiences a year now, so please come and enjoy the blessings and spirit of being in The House of the Lord.

 

#3                    For Wednesday Nov. 5th, we will be meeting for Scoutmaster Conferences and Boards of Review at the church @ 7 PM.  Please bring yourScout Handbook and be in your uniform.   Those that are ready to advance will need to make sure they have the required number of merit badges and more importantly, a total of 6 service hours since their last rank advancement.  So get your service hours if you haven't already done so.  If you helped set up the spook alley for the Ward party, that can be counted towards your service hours.  Service is a big part of Scouting and a great habit to develop for the rest of your life.

 

 

 

 

If you have any questions and/or concerns, please let me know.  Thanks.
