Hi Troop 136!
Bicycling campout:
In case you did not see the posts from this weekend's campout, we had a great time, great weather and an amazing camping experience! It doesn't get much better than this past weekend! Everyone was safe and had a great time!
Popcorn:
Troop 136 is pleased to offer scouts the opportunity to earn popcorn sales by participating in our Socially Distanced Popcorn Boths. Scouts can sign up to work a shift at the booths. They should be prepared to set up or clean up, hold signs and speak with customers. Scouts should be in Class A uniform, should wear a mask and be prepared to socially distance. We will provide hand sanitizer for both scouts and popcorn customers. Proceeds from the booth sales will be split equally between participants. Please Contact Shanna Wright or Julie Callahan with any questions or concerns. (see email for phone numbers)
9/29 Troop Meeting:
The meeting tonight will again begin as a virtual meeting at 7:00 pm for everyone followed by a den meeting for the Knights of Mandalore.
Three Eagles Shootout on 10/3:
Here is the list so far for the Three Eagles Shootout. Originally it was scheduled to be held on September 10th, but they had to move it to the 3rd. I do not have control over this event so even though these two events are back to back weekends, this will only be an activity for Saturday only. Parents are asked to drive your Scout to the event and pick them up once it is done. Pack your own lunch. It is $10 to participate. I need both the permission slip and the liability form completed for your Scout to participate. It looks like I had originally included the permission slip from last year. Please review the permission slip for this year. There are a few changes to the form. The price is $10 as compared to the $15 from last year and there is a drop off time at the location and a pick up time as well.
Here is the liability form:
Here are the participants this weekend: (see email)
Creek Sweep10/17:
Keep the October 17th weekend open in the morning between 8 and 11 am. You will have the opportunity to earn three conservation hours. We will again be helping the City of Grove City clean out the creeks. We will need some adult leaders to help walk with the Scouts. Please let me know if you are interested in participating in this event. You will see some information come out next week in the weekly email, but I wanted to be sure this was on your calendar. This is offered once a year and if you participate, you can earn the hours needed for the rank advancement for the higher ranks that require conservation hours in addition to the service hours. No cost for this event! I will ask for some guidance from the Troop Committee for this event from the committee before sharing the permission slip for this event.
