A special thank you to Colin McGlynn for using the leftover funds from his Eagle project to purchase 4 new tents for the troop! Our quartermaster Chase is learning how to set them up now.

For those who attended Winter Blast, we are loading merit badge data into Scoutbook this week. Please check next week to see what requirements you may still need to complete.

Finally, I have received some more information on arrangements for Jaden Delanty. The visitation is scheduled from 5-7 pm on Friday evening at HD Oliver Funeral Home, 1501 Colonial Avenue, Norfolk, VA 23517. The Memorial service will be Saturday at 1 pm at St. Andrew’s Episcopal Church, 1009 W Princess Anne Rd, Norfolk, VA 23507. There will also be a gathering on Saturday evening from 6-8 pm at Elizabeth Manor Golf & Country Club, 1 Ace Parker Drive, Portsmouth, VA 23701. Please continue to keep the Delanty family in your thoughts and prayers.
