Get trained on how to be the best boy scout leader you can be!  This is a two-part course, the first part in in a classroom setting which meets twice.  The second part is in the field at a hands-on campout.  Both parts are required to be considered a fully trained adult leader.  This is GREAT content for any new adult member of the troop that would like to know more about scouts and how you can be involved and support the troop.

Flags In - THIS SATURDAY 9/12 @ 8:30am @ TBC

Posted on Sep 10 2020 - 8:54pm
Below please find the link to sign-up for Patriot Day Flags In, which will be on Saturday, 9/12 @ 8:30 am.
 
Since we're working with a reduced level of "scout-power" to help facilitate social distancing due to COVID-19, it would be great if all the slots were filled, and you do NOT have to sign up under your (your scout's) patrol leader.

Will Otte Eagle Scout Project - August 29 & Labor Day

Posted on Aug 28 2020 - 10:50am
Hello, everyone! I have been working toward the rank of Eagle Scout for several years and am excited to be so close to the completion of my Eagle Scout journey. I am happy to announce that my Eagle Scout project beneficiary will be First United Methodist Church Richardson. This church community has helped me so much over the years, and I can’t wait to give back to them through this project.
Specifically, I will be working to transform a neglected, overgrown outdoor area adjacent to an existing building into a usable fenced storage space for FUMCR's Woodworking Ministry, the Sawdust Brothers. The secure site will also be available to the church and the neighboring YMCA for storage of sports equipment. The project entails preparing the space by taking down an existing dilapidated fence, clearing out the overgrowth and constructing a new, secure fence.

I am planning to begin Phase One (demolition and clean up of existing area) on August 29 and finish the project Labor Day weekend. If you would like to volunteer or make a donation toward my Eagle Scout project, I would be really grateful. I have appreciated the encouragement of my family, fellow Scouts, Scout leaders and community on the road to earning the rank of Eagle, and I want to thank you for your ongoing support. It means so much to me!
