It's back to school time and a very busy upcoming couple of months for our units. It's a great time to recruit your friends to Scouting. If you know anyone who has expressed interest in some of the fun activities that you do, please invite them to a meeting and we can get them more information.
Alex Royce Eagle Project: At last night's meeting, Alex expressed his gratitude to everyone who has helped on his project so far. He has one more work day scheduled for this Saturday 8/24 starting at 9am. There are only a few things to finish up and Alex would appreciate anyone's help who is able to come support him. If you can give a little time to support one of the biggest projects that one of our scouts has taken on, he would be very grateful.
Recruiting night: Thursday, 8/28 is recruiting night at the church from 6:30 to 7:30 pm. The Pack will be talking to parents and potential scouts about how much fun scouting is. If you are a Den Chief, please consider coming and helping out. If you're not a Den Chief and are interested in becoming one, please let me know. We will have a climbing wall and other games at this event.
Put in Bay Campout: Wow on the number of scouts planning to attend. We currently have 13 scouts planning to attend. This is going to be a fun trip. We'll be camping at East Harbor State Park, taking a ferry to South Bass Island and roaming around the island checking out various different sites. Attached is the permission slip. You need to have updated medical forms parts A and B on hand to participate.
David Sweet Eagle Court of Honor: David Sweet has scheduled his Eagle COH for Sunday, 9/8/2024 at 2:30 pm at the First Presbyterian Church. He's looking for some scouts to help with the Court of Honor as the color guard and to light candles. Below is a sign up genius for any scouts who are interested in helping. Let's all come out and celebrate this honor with David and his family. Sign up genius is below:
Arts in the Alley Parade: Saturday, 9/21/24, is the 2024 Arts in the Alley Parade. Troops 136 and 7136 will be joined by Troop 392 to carry the American Flag and lead the parade. We'll meet at the CVS at the corner of Broadway and Southwest BLVD in Grove City at 9:00 am. The parade starts at 9:30 am so let's make sure to be on time. Below is a sign up genius. We have several scouts and adults who will not be able to attend this year as they will be at the September OA Ordeal so we need everyone to come out.
Three Eagle Shootout: The Three Eagle Shootout is an annual event that is sponsored by local scouters who volunteer their time to teach scouts how to shoot .22 rifles, 12 gauge shotguns and compound bows. These volunteers are NRA trained instructors who want scouts to learn how to safely handle guns and bows. The event is held at the Pickaway County Sportsmen Club located at 8100 US-22 in Circleville, Oh. 43113, and the date has been changed to Saturday, 10/5/2024. If you're interested in going, sign up below:
Henry Ciocca Eagle Court of Honor: Henry Ciocca's Eagle Court of Honor is set for Sunday, 10/13/2024. Please keep this day open to celebrate this accomplishment with Henry and his family.
University of Scouting: The annual University of Scouting is scheduled for Saturday, 11/9/2024. This event is a great opportunity for adult leaders to learn from other leaders. There will be classes to register for on the Simon Kenton Council calendar. Location has not been determined and the registration has not opened yet.
