Troop 1001,

It’s that time of year again that we start gearing up for the Cottonwood Art Festival. To start, I’d like to welcome our two new committee chairs, Jill Belton & Chris Dudley. The festival is only five weeks away, and as many of you know, Cottonwood is one of the Troop's biggest fundraisers, so support is needed from everyone throughout the weekend. The dates are May 1^st through May 4^th.

PLEASE READ the attachment below for details of the event.

PLEASE NOTE: VERY IMPORTANT – The Troop is required to have on file a City of Richardson Volunteer Application for every participating adult. We will need new forms from everyone in the Troop as this is an annual requirement from the City of Richardson.

We're looking forward to another successful Cottonwood event!

Did your son grow over the year? Does your son need another Class B for summer camp?

Also, the Troop prefers adults wear a green Class B when volunteering with the Troop, especially for Cottonwood or Flags.

Please contact Rita (Swag Coordinator - 214-620-4295) to get one. Sizes range from Youth L to Adult 3XL and the cost is $15. Order now to avoid a scramble after the Troop room closes for the summer!
