Starting this week going forward, each meeting will be split into three parts, The main focus of the meeting, Patrol time, and Game time.
The troop will be starting their Chess and Personal Management merit badges this Tuesday. The Troop will continue to work on these MB’s for weeks to come. If you have started these, please bring your blue card and packet.
During Patrol time, the newly formed patrols will pick their new name, come up with a yell, and work on a flag.
For Game time, we will be doing some sort of a quiz about scouting.

The goal is to collect 600 paperback books donations that will be sent to U.S troops overseas at Military bases in Kuwait, Afghanistan and the United Kingdom (200 books each). Volunteers will go door-to-door and request paperback books from homeowners. Training will be provided.
