Patriots Day 2024 Flags In (Retrieval)

Scouts and parents will meet at the parking lot of Trinity Bible Church at 8:30 am on Saturday, September 14th  to get their route assigments and get into their respective groups.

Please sign up under your patrol leader's name. Click HERE for the signup genius.   If your patrol is full you can sign up under another patrol.  Parents please provide your phone number when signing up. 

Scouts please wear your Class B uniform, and if you desire, work gloves.  Adults if you have a green Troop 1001 T-shirt please wear it.  We want the neighborhood to know that it is the scouts putting out the flags.

Please "Be Prepared" and bring your own water bottle on Saturday.  We will end the event with some ice cream.

Trail to First Class is back...but it's different.

Posted on Aug 29 2024 - 9:31am
The TFC weekly sessions will be by patrol this year.  Each week two patrols will be holding Trail to First Class (TFC) sessions before the Monday meetings from 6:30-7.

Patrols:
1 -- Ryan Howard
2 -- Easton Strub
3 -- Jacob Bryant
4 -- Alex Jeans
5 -- Landon Quant
6 -- Graham Stewart
7 -- Alec Slobin
8 -- Kyle Ogden

Adult involvement needed. Critical to success of the Troop!

For the people that missed the parent meeting:.....
 
Whose Job Is It, Anyway? - John Slaughter email from Feb 2024
"This is a story about four people named Everybody, Somebody, Anybody and Nobody. There was an important job to be done and Everybody was sure that Somebody would do it. Anybody could have done it, but Nobody did it. Somebody got angry about that, because it was Everybody’s job. Everybody thought Anybody could do it, but Nobody realized that Everybody wouldn’t do it. It ended up that Everybody blamed Somebody when Nobody did what Anybody could have."
Scouting's gift is everyone's responsibility. Let’s not fall in the trap described in the story.
   
We were very fortunate to have 10 Eagle scouts last year. Unfortunately, that also meant that we had several VERY involved families move on with their scouts. We currently have another group of 30 Scouts - LIFE (15) & Star (15) ranked - who are Sophomore & Juniors in High School; many who will not be around next year. The Troop needs YOU to step in so we can continue to be successful.
