Troop 5 Scoutmaster Announcements – May 7, 2024

We had 16 scouts and adult leaders take the BSA swim test today – thank you all for your participation! For those going on the canoe trip, we do also need updated BSA medical forms, parts A & B (not C). Many scouts and adults have forms that are expiring before we go; you have been notified by email if we need your updated form before the canoe trip. Please also ensure that any invoices for this upcoming trip are paid by this Friday, May 10th.

For all scouts attending summer camp, we do need a current BSA medical form, parts A, B, and C (the part a doctor must complete). Please ensure that you get your doctor to complete this form ahead of time so that we do not have any unexpected complications when leaving for summer camp in July.

Jeremy Morris’s Eagle project has been postponed to Saturday, May 25th, still 11am – 2pm at Bless Sacrament Catholic Church.

Looking further ahead, the PLC will conduct annual planning its annual planning on June 2nd. Scouts should provide their input to their patrol leaders and/or senior patrol staff on what they would like to do this coming year.

Remember to tell your friends and neighbors about all the cool things we’re doing in our troop. They or someone they know may want to become our next scout!

Thank you!
Scott Guirlinger
