Recharter

It’s time to renew your membership in the troop for 2019.

Recharter packets were made available in October (by pick up or emailed). If you still do not have one see Liz ASAP. They are due back to the troop at the November 13 troop meeting. Dues (Troop and OA) will be due at that time.

Leaders -- if you want to change positions write that on your recharter paperwork. Also, any leader that has not completed the new YPT training by Thanksgiving will be DROPPED.

Upcoming Outings & Events:

December Day Outings: Events & Dates TBD

Service Opportunities

Winter Blast - January 2019

Scoutbook - Have You Logged In?

What does this mean? You can edit yours or your scout’s profile information (address, phone numbers, school & grade) inside Scoutbook! You can also see where your scout is in his advancement and what he needs to work on.

Don’t have access? Can’t find the invitation email? See Liz.

Got Advancement?

Looking to have requirements signed off? Remember, it’s up to you to seek out a scout First Class or Above to test and sign off on your requirements. Once they’ve dated and initialed your advancement sheet, drop it in the box and it will get recorded in Scoutbook. Not in the box or without the initials of whoever signed it off? It doesn’t get recorded.

What about Merit Badges? Once you decide you want to work on a badge, fill out a Blue Card and take it to Mr. Landquist to sign off. He’ll also help you find merit badge counselors. Having issues contacting a counselor? Let Mr. Landquist know so he can help find another counselor.
