It's a new year and you know what that means! NEW MED FORMS! After completing forms A&B, please put them in the "turn-it-in" bin.

Q. What is meant by "Annual"?
A. An AHMR (Annual Health and Medical Record) is valid through the end of the 12th month from the date it was administered by your medical provider. For example, a physical administered March 3, 2014, would be valid until March 31, 2015. The AHMR in use before March 1, 2014, will be valid only until April 1, 2015, and only if it was completed before April 1, 2014. OUR TROOP COLLECTS MEDICAL RECORDS AT THE START OF EVERY CALENDAR YEAR BECAUSE KEEPING UP WITH EVERY SCOUT'S INDIVIDUAL DATE IS ABSOLUTELY TOO CUMBERSOME.

Dear Parents,

Many of the adult leaders in our Troop have been working their jobs for quite some time. Many of these adults have Scouts that are older and soon will be moving on to other endeavors. If we want our Troop to thrive, it's best to shadow a person in a position for a while before taking the whole role. We currently have many positions that will need to be filled in the coming months. Some of those positions include:

If you have any information on upcoming merit badge clinics, would you email a link to the Secretary, atlwender@comcast.net, to include in our Blast each week. Some of you are very good about following up on merit badge clinics, and it would be a tremendous service to share your info with those of us who are not as diligent. Thank you!

A current list of Merit Badge Counselors has been added to the website.

Please contact Jeff Higgins if you see a gap in the counselor list you wish to fill!  Becoming a counselor is easy and there are lots of great badges that can be taught.

How often do the Boy Scouts meet?

We have Troop meetings every Monday night from 7:00 pm until 8:30 all year round. There are select occassions through the year in which a troop meeting doesn't happen (during some school holidays, after a long weekend camping trip, etc) but you should always check the calendar on the web site for up-to-date information. We camp on the average of once per month and have other events through the month as opportunities arise that are for fundraising, merit badge clinics, service projects and other fun! Although we encourage the Scout to participate as much as possible, he chooses what events and trips to take advantage of based on other commitments.
