So your Scoutmaster is a basketcase? :)


Troop:

Here are a few items of note on the upcoming troop activity:

1.     Don’t miss tomorrow night’s meeting as I show you what a “Basket-Case” I can be!  We will be weaving baskets as the meeting activity.  You will have the opportunity to do some scout handicraft work and try your skill in weaving.  If you complete a total of 2 baskets [the one we will give you plus another that you have to get] and weave a stool seat you will have most of the items completed for Basketry Merit Badge.
2.     The following week we will be making leather neckerchief slides; simple but a needed item.  It can be used as part of the leatherwork merit badge requirements so keep that in mind as well.
3.     PLC MEMBERS! Don’t forget that this coming weekend will be are annual program planning event.  It will be from 2-6 PM on Saturday, 7/21.  Please plan to attend.  This is where you as the troop leadership can get activities and outings that your patrols have shown the most interest in participating in this next year’s schedule.  It is very important – so make every attempt to be there and ready to represent your patrol on this important meeting.  I will have Pizza for after our work. 
4.     Tomorrow night I will have a sign-up sheet for the Grove City Homecoming Softball Tournament Trash Clean-up.  That will be the weekend of July 28 and 29. We will pick up the softball diamond area trash as a fundraiser. The money earned goes directly into the scout accounts for the scouts that work the event. Details are Saturday morning for about 1 hour and then both evenings for about 2 hours [after all of the games have played]. I will need a couple of parents with trucks to work to haul the trash to the dumpster.  See all details at our meeting tomorrow night.

That is all for now.  See you tomorrow night!

Sincerely,

Kirk Bohanan
Scoutmaster Troop 136
