Troop 5 Scoutmaster Announcements – May 26, 2026

Thank you to everyone who attend our court of honor tonight and congratulations to all who earned badges.

I have just learned tonight that there is a last minute opening in the National Jamboree contingent. You must be 12-17 years old during the Jamboree on July 22-31st, and First Class rank is recommended (but not required). If you are interested in attending, please let me know ASAP as the slot may fill quickly. More information on Jamboree here: https://jamboree.scouting.org/

Reminder to join us this Thursday, May 28th at 6:30pm at St John Lutheran Church where we will welcome our newest scout Jack at Pack 191’s crossover ceremony. All troop youth, leaders, and parents are invited to attend. (This event will have a space theme.)

We will be doing future planning the next two weeks. Please come help shape the future activities of our troop. Let your youth leaders know what events and program features you want to repeat, which ones you’d prefer to skip doing again, and what new things you want to try!

• On June 2nd, the Patrol Leaders Council (PLC) will lead the troop in planning our weekly summer outings. All troop youth, leaders, and parents are encouraged to attend.
• On June 9th, the PLC will conduct its annual planning for September 2026 – August 2027. Adult leaders are highly encouraged to attend. Other troop youth may optionally attend as well.

Finally, please RSVP at https://forms.gle/1P9spHHVJBWXKhWi9 for the Scout Night with the Norfolk Tides on Friday, June 12th. Game time is 6:35pm at Harbor Park, with camping on the field after the game. Tickets are $19 each and camping vouchers are $5 each. We are trying to finalize plans for this event by the end of this week.

Thanks everyone,

Scott
