Scouts BSA Troop 108, Fort Mill, SC
A look through the Troop 108 history books indicates that Sam Cecil is the troop’s 108th Eagle.
The troop’s youth leaders have decided to revive the tradition of Game/Movie Night & Sleepover on Friday, Aug 26th at 6:00PM to Sat, Aug 27th at 8:00AM at Unity Fellowship Hall.
The cost is $5 to help cover the cost of pizza and drinks.
Scouts can bring board games, video games, video game systems (a TV may not be available to play on, so if you want, you can bring your own).
Also, a movie will be shown for those who need a break from the other activities. See you there!
Our Annual Beach Sweep event is right around the corner so please take time to register soon as registration closes after the meeting on August 29th. Please register/pay prior to the last Troop meeting August 29 so we can finalize the transportation.
We won’t be meeting on September 5th because of the Labor Day holiday so be sure to get registered before it closes on the 29th. The Beach Sweep event is on September 9-11, 2016.
The Troop will be camping again at Lakewood Campground in Myrtle Beach. We will camp Friday night, clean the beach Saturday morning and play in the sun Saturday afternoon.
The cost of Beach Sweep is $55.00. This includes camp fees, travel, Saturday Breakfast, Lunch and the Saturday Evening Dinner. Boys WILL need to bring money for supper on the road going down (Friday) and breakfast coming back (Sunday) and for other drinks and goodies they may want to purchase while at the campground.
Departure will be at 5:00pm on Friday, September 9th at Unity Church. We will return to the Scout Hut around 2pm (Scouts will call you when we get close to the Church) Sunday, September 11th, 2016

Just a reminder, that the troop has elected not to meet on August 15th, the first day of school in Fort Mill School District.
Stephen T will be continuing work on his Eagle Project on August 6th and could use your help. Stephen is supervising the installation of a sign and small bridge on the Carolina Thread Trail system across from the Nation Ford High School football stadium.
Stephen asks that you meet in the trail parking lot on A.O. Jones Blvd in Fort Mill at 8am on August 6th. The group will work to 4pm and lunch, snacks and water will be provided. Dress for working in the outdoors.
We’ll have both a regular meeting and a Patrol Leaders Council on July 25th @ 7pm. We’ll use this time to plan upcoming meetings and to make sure that we’ve correctly documented work completed by our scouts while at Summer Camp.
On August 1st we will hold the “Great Gear Give Away” for boys who meet the following criteria:
The troop has acquired a bunch of gear – some new and some used – that we simply don’t have room to store. We’re going to issue tickets to those scouts who meet the criteria above and will hold a random drawing to determine who will win what item. We have sleeping bags, backpacks with frames and so much more. Once a scout wins an item, he is free to do with it as he wishes (trade, sell, give away) as long as it leaves the premises at the end of the night. More Info to follow.
Scouts and adults interested in helping Aidan with his Eagle Scout Project from 9am until 3pm on Sunday, July 17th should meet at the ASC Greenway’s office near the dairy barn.
Participants should wear clothing that they don’t mind getting dirty and probably a hat and/or glasses for the sun.
