January

 Hi Troop 136!

Happy New Year!

As we begin to start the new year, you might want to think about your goals for Scouting this year.  What do you want to do with your merit badges?  What ranks do you want to earn?  As you can see below, I set goals for myself.  I encourage you to do the same.

Tuesday, January 3:
We will begin discussing the music merit badge during the instruction this month.

Tuesday, January 10:
Court of Honor will be held for all Scouts and parents.  We need a Scout to be the emcee for the event.  Let me know if you are interested.  This is a requirement for the Communications Merit Badge.  There will be pictures offered by Mr. Baughman again this year.  This is a great way to document their time in Scouting.  He always does a great job!

Tuesday, January 10th Required Parent Meeting:
There will be a required meeting after the Court of Honor for all parents.  The pictures of the Scouts will be done during the parent meeting.

January Campout January 28-29:
Attached is information about the January campout.  Unfortunately, I will not be able to go to this event.  I will need other adults to attend.  Please use the signup genius to sign up for this event.  You must sign up before January 10th.  We need to register and get a camping spot on Saturday night. $30 for the campout. ($15 registration and $15 for food).

February campout at Marengo Caves:
This will be a fun event.  You will camp in the cabins on Friday and Saturday night.  You will also be able to go through wet and dry parts of the caves.  You will get to go through the Masher.  It will be a fun event you don't wanna miss.

NYLT:
The registration opened up and we have three Scouts registered now.  If you are First Class and above and want to participate, please let me know.
