Scouts BSA Troop 108, Fort Mill, SC
Below are the meeting plans as made by the PLC on February 15th, 2010 and as noted by our Troop Scribe.
ASM’s Isner and Helms have elected to delay the merit badge classes for Camping, Emergency Preparedness and Environmental Science by one week due to weather.
The new date for the initial class on these badges is now February 20th. We will keep the same original 9, 10 & 11 o’clock schedule.
Below is a PDF file of the 2010 Merit Badge College Dates, Schedule & Roster
We just learned at tonight’s adult leader Roundtable that Merit Badge College for this Saturday has been CANCELLED due to the forecasted snowy forecast for Friday night.
Here is a copy of the official statement we just got via email:
Due to the possibility of inclement weather for Friday evening through Saturday early morning, Merit Badge College for Saturday, 13, 2010 has been cancelled.
Classes will resume as originally scheduled for Saturday, February 20th ( Law, Collections, Truck Transportation and Weather) and Saturday, February 27th (Fire Safety, Crime Prevention, and First Aid).
We are looking at rescheduling this weekend’s classes (Cit. Nation, Cit. World, Communication and Wilderness Survival) for Saturday, March 6th.
First Class or above Scouts needing to start or complete any of these three badges who are not attending Merit Badge College this year are welcome to come to the Scout Hut on Saturday, February 13th to work on them.
If you’ve completed any pre-work on these badges, bring your paperwork so we can assess what you’ve done and determine what you need to do to complete the badges.
Scouts can attend one, two or all three of the badges, if interested.
Contact ASMs Britt Helms or David Isner for more information.
We will not meet as a troop on the 3rd Monday of each month beginning February 15th, 2010.
This Monday night will be set aside for the troop’s Patrol Leaders Council (PLC) meeting and as an Individual Scout Work Night (ISWN) where scouts can come to work on scoutmasters conferences, boards of review and for them to seek help completing rank requirements and merit badge partials.
The troop will hold regular meetings on the other Mondays of each month unless there is no school.
Scouts planning to attend summer camp with Troop 108 at Camp John J. Barnhardt June 27th through July 3rd, 2010 should bring a $25 deposit before the end of February.
This can be dropped off at the February 15th PLC and Individual Scout Work Night, or brought to the February 22nd meeting. Either way, the deposit needs to be paid before the end of the month.
More information about our stay at Camp John J. Barnhardt, including the total cost per scout, will be forthcoming. In the mean time, feel free to check out the camp’s website:
All troop members are encouraged to show up at the scout hut at 8:30am on Sunday, February 7th to attend the early worship service with the members of Unity Presbyterian Church, who sponsor our Pack and Troop.
Please dress in as full a uniform as you have (wear scout pants if you have them – instead of jeans) and wear your merit badge and OA sashes too.
The forecast for heavy rains Friday and into Saturday have caused the troop leaders to delay the Troop on Display event until the Springtime. So we will NOT gather at the scout hut on Friday night and sleep over or set up a model campsite on Saturday.
The 100th Anniversary of BSA Scout Sunday service is still happening on Sunday at Unity Presbyterian Church. Scouts should be at the scout hut at 8:30am to enter the church as a group for the early service.
Don’t forget that our adult leaders (and the SPL and ASPL) will be meeting on Thursday night at 6:30pm to plan out the next 6 months or so for the troop.
Originally we planned to meet in Rock Hill, but have been unable to confirm the location. For that reason we’ll be meeting in Unity Hall this time.
If you’re coming, bring a 2 liter soda and $5 to help defray the cost of BBQ from Firebonz.
