Dear Fellow Scouter!

Blackfoot is an enhanced training course for Scoutmasters and Assistant Scoutmasters, and other Boy Scout leaders in Simon Kenton Council. It is perfect for Webelos leaders transitioning into Boy Scouting.

Blackfoot is not just training - it is an experience. Most importantly, it is a lot of fun and you will make friends with fellow scouters throughout the Council.

Eagle Project work Saturday, 11/16

All,

Due to severe weather and wind expected on Sunday (my original planned workday), I opted to move my workday to tomorrow (SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 16th) from 8:00 AM - 2:00 PM because tomorrow is supposed to be sunny and in the mid-sixties. 

I NEED YOUR HELP!  Even if you can only stop by for an hour or two, please consider helping as we finish putting up the fence tomorrow and preparing the ground for bricks.  We are going to make every effort to be done as soon as possible.  All hours will count as community service.  Hopefully this will be the last workday until the engraved bricks arrive the first week in December.

BREAKFAST (donuts) and LUNCH will be provided

Thank you, thank you, thank you!!!!  I couldn't do this without your support, help and time.

Eagle project today

Thank you all who have signed up to help with my Eagle Project.  Just a quick note about what is going on. 
When you get to the Y, please park in the side lot, and do not enter the building.  Please just come around the back of the Y.  Wear clothes that you can get ruined, and please bring work gloves as well.  We will have a lunch there.  
If you have any questions, please call me 
Thanks, Seth

Eagle Project Sunday

All,

Thank you for your continued support of my Eagle Scout Project at the church.  Since the last workday, a lot of behind the scenes work has taken place.  The tree stumps were ground down, tree limbs were chipped and shredded and then removed, the dirt pile has been removed and as much of the gravel as possible moved to be under the firepit.  The area looks very different.  Before Sunday, I am hoping to stake where the fence posts and shrubs are going.  While it is moving along, I still need your help.

This weekend we will be putting in the fence, shrubs and if we get enough done, possibly the firepit and grass seed.  I appreciate everyone who signed up.  If you were unable to sign up at the last meeting but would like to help, just come on over to the church we will be working Sunday from 12:30 - 5:30 PM, even if you can only come over for an hour or two, we would like your help.  If you have a shovel, please bring it and mark it with your name.

BRICKS -- First order of bricks has been placed, the second order (and last) will be placed on November 18th.  If you would like to purchase a Scout or Eagle brick, please see me before November 17th.  There will be a special area for Eagle Scout bricks with an Eagle statue along the back fence. 

Remember that all hours you work, count towards your community service hours.  I have kept Kirk up to date and turned in all work hours as we have completed workdays.  

Most of this week's food was provided by Target.  We will be having Homemade Beef Vegetable Soup, Chicken Sandwiches, Meatball Sandwiches and Macaroni and Cheese, along with a variety of fruits, veggies and of course snacks/treats too. 

Hope to see you there!

Thank you,

Andy Price

Popcorn is due on 11/5/13!

Just a reminder tomorrow night I will need copies of your sales forms, any money you have collected along with any unsold product you still have.
