Hi parents and scouts,

On Wednesday night, we will focus on the Family Meeting- how to plan for and carry it out.  It is #6 in the workbook. 

The home assignment will be to have several family meetings, where you will discuss topics that are listed in the workbook (use of drugs/alcohol, growing-up process and making decisions regarding sex, personal and family finances, crisis situations, technology usage, good manners).  This will likely carry over into more than one family meeting.  I have some information to give to the scouts for discussion starters.

The last topic to cover for Family Life is the importance of the role of Father in the family (#7 in workbook).  If time, we will try to cover this on Wednesday as well.    I have a video to show. 

Please make every effort to attend, as it will be difficult to make up.  You are welcome to come with your scout.
Also, I can sign off on projects (personal and family) if they are completed.  And bring your chore charts/signed to show weeks you have completed.

This merit badge takes a great amount of effort at home.  Thanks for all you are doing to keep your scouts on task and for their efforts to strengthen your family.

See you tomorrow!!
Sister Harker

Email from Bro. Allen - February 1st, 2015

In preparation for Scoutcamp this summer, I need to know what scouts are committed to attending.  Scoutcamp  will be July 20-25, 2015 at Camp Meriwether.  We typically leave very early Mondaymorning and return sometime Saturday afternoon.  To secure your scout a position and attendance at Scoutcamp, I need you all to make a down payment of$75 per scout by Feb. 1st, 2015.  Keep in mind this is a down payment and the out of pocket cost per scout will be determined at a later date factoring in our recent fundraiser and other costs involved with Scoutcamp.  Please fill out a tithing slip and mark the "other" and designate it for "Scoutcamp".  Let me know when you have done this payment so I can make sure we have your scout on the roster and the correct number of reservations.  Currently I have 11 scouts going to this Scoutcamp. Thank you.
