In Person meetings – The church has let us know that we are able to meet again, as long as anyone not vaccinated wears a mask. Given that we don’t have a very many meetings left in our season, most of our meetings will be kids who are not vaccinated, and the outside meetings have been lovely, we are going to finish out May/June at the shelter in the park. We will meet May 25, June 1 and June 8. ~~~
COURT OF HONOR – We have decided not to have a spring Court of Honor. All rank and badges earned to date, and then through the summer will be awarded in a Court of Honor in the fall. ~~~
SERVICE HOURS – A Troop 313 family needs some help! PLEASE, on June 5, come to 2521 E. 35th with rakes and work gloves and water at 10 AM. You will receive service hours for your time today and really help out one of our scout families. This is a good way to finish up some service hours for rank advancement
EMAIL ME IF YOU ARE ABLE TO MAKE IT SO I CAN TRACK HOURS. christellcasey@gmail.com~~~
EAGLE SCOUT BOARD OF REVIEW – I need one more parent to join Rex Franklin and I at an Eagle Scout Board of Review for Jessen Forbush this coming Monday, May 24, at 7 PM. It will be by Zoom. ~~~
SUMMER CAMP – It is not too late to sign up. The price this year is $320.
VENMO – @Christell-Casey. PAY PAL – @christellcasey1
As soon as your scout is paid in full, I can register them for merit badges. Unfortunately, the Grand Columbia Council does not have a parent portal. So, you will have to send me the list of classes your scout want to take and I will sign them up. Bonaparte also has classes for Tenderfoot, Second Class and First Class, so if your scout needs rank advancement after this crazy year, this might be a very good option for them. Here is a link to the class schedule:classes-2Download
Also, don’t forget you need a BSA Medical Examination. Here is the form.health-formDownload
Once you have it completed, please email them to Jen Oberst at jkoberst@gmail.com
We will be having a Summer Camp Parents meeting in early June. WE STILL NEED ADULTS TO ATTEND! Let me know right away of you can stay at camp all week, or even for a few nights. THANKS!
EAGLE SCOUT PROJECTS – We have a lead for some projects. Jeff Lambert, the Executive Director of the Dishman Hills Conservatory has things that scouts can do. You can contact him at ed@dishmanhills.org or 509-999-510
I would love to attend the BSA Summer Campout at Bonaparte this year. Please send me details.
I will complete my BSA volunteer training in the next few days. Is there anything else I should do to prepare?
Thank you! Heather Joy
