Good afternoon Troop 136!
Overnight Camp-in at the church:
I am looking forward to tonight when we meet at the church
at 6 pm for a fun night of food and games. I will be picking up the pizza
for the event. I have a number for those going on Saturday based on the
turned in permission forms, but not sure of the number that will show up
tonight. Remember, Class B tonight and Class A tomorrow if you are
attending the Orienteering course. You can wear the Class A under your
coat or jacket tomorrow. It will be cold, so dress in layers for the
event. The high tomorrow will only be 43 degrees.
Orienteering - leaving at 10 am:
The following individuals will be going to the Orienteering
course in Lancaster @ 2805 Old Logan Rd SE, Lancaster, OH 43130. We will plan to leave
the church around 10 am. We will have breakfast at the church and the Scouts
will be packing lunch that morning for the trip. The Scouts that are attending
based on the permission slips are: James B, Zach B, Calvin C,
Brady E, Cooper E, Shane F, Alex R, Jayden V and Noah W. The adults that I am
aware that are attending are: John F, Todd M, Jason W and myself.
Popcorn:
Mr. Asendorf needs prize selections from popcorn for the
following scouts: Kohta Weese, Will Wisenbarger. Calvin Clasby, Noah Wright and
Anderson Hurt. Selections need to be made by the end of the Dec. 10
meeting. If you cannot make the meeting, please reach out to him at jasendorf@gmail.com or
614-746-3746.
Manger Service Project:
The service project that we completed for the
church will be turned on for public display at 6 pm on Saturday night.
Plan to be at the church to receive recognition and be able to show our support
for the church. This will take place before the lighting of the Christmas
Tree in downtown Grove City.
PLC Meeting on Monday @ 3 pm:
I briefly talked with the PLC on Tuesday night about the
opportunity for them to learn more about their respective positions of
leadership. The general consensus was they wanted to learn more about
their positions. As part of the PLC, one of the items that I need to do
as the Scoutmaster would be to help them prepare to be the leaders of the
Troop. The PLC determines the level of our success as a Troop. The
Scouts will be learning about how the PLC works through some games and
interactive activities. We will start this at 3 pm on Sunday
afternoon. The introduction course will take about two hours to complete
and dinner will be provided for the Scouts. We will then have the PLC
Meeting begin at 5 pm and finish by 6 pm just before the Committee Meeting.
I plan to complete Module 1 this month:
Introduction to Leadership Skills for Troops (ILS)
Depending on how the Scouts enjoy it, we might complete
Module 2 next month and Module 3 the third month.
I will need at least one additional adult to be there with
me for the PLC Meeting. If you can help, please let me know.
Committee Meeting on Sunday at 6 PM:
If you are a parent in the Troop and would like to learn
more about the troop or just come and sit and watch Todd lead the Committee,
you are welcome to come to the Committee Meeting at 6 pm. We need your
input and you would be helping make decisions for your Scout. I encourage
you to attend the meeting at 6 pm. We generally are done in less than an
hour. Every person has a voice and time to talk about the items during
the meeting and ask questions. Todd Miller would appreciate your input as
we make decisions and plan events that affect the Troop.
