Troop Meeting for EVERYONE

Posted on Aug 14 2026 - 12:01am

In the blink of an eye, summer is over, school is back in session, and Troop 1001 is back, baby!

Our first troop meeting of the 2026-2027 school year will be held THIS coming Monday, August 17, 2026, and we're excited to kick off another great year together.

This meeting is for all Scouts and parents, so we encourage every family to attend. While the Scouts participate in their regular troop activities and meeting, parents and guardians will gather separately to learn more about the exciting events, adventures, and opportunities planned for the year ahead.

We'll also discuss the many important volunteer roles that help keep our troop running smoothly. Whether you're a returning family or new to the troop, this is a great opportunity to learn how you can contribute to our continued success and help create an outstanding experience for all Scouts.

Please arrive by 6:59 PM so we can start on time and make the most of the evening.

We look forward to seeing everyone there and starting another great year of scouting together!

Be Prepared. Be Involved. Be Part of the Adventure!

September Campout: Climbing Merit Badge at Mineral Wells State Park!

Posted on Aug 14 2026 - 12:01am

Get ready to climb! Our September campout will take us to Mineral Wells State Park, where Scouts will have the opportunity to work on the Climbing Merit Badge with the experienced guides from Rock About Climbing Adventures.

When: September 11-13
Register By: August 31

All climbing gear is included in the program fee, so Scouts only need to bring their normal camping gear and an adventerous spirit.

More information about the climbing program can be found here: Rock About Scout Troop Rock Climbing Program

Expected Costs

  • $89 - Climbing Program (vendor fee)
  • $25 - Estimated Campsite Fee (this is still in flux)
  • $114 - Total estimate Due to Troop (final cost will be determined before the 8/31 deadline)

Plus the normal $20 Cash for food for the weekend.

The campsite fee is still being finalized, but we wanted to open registration immediately due to the short planning timeline. We appreciate your prompt response so we can confirm our group reservation.

Because we have a very tight turnaround for reserving the climbing program, all registrations and payments must be submitted by August 31.

Hi everyone!

I’m currently working toward earning my Eagle Scout rank, and I’m raising funds for my Eagle Scout Service Project. The project will provide jumbo yard games (including Jumbo Jenga, Tic-Tac-Toe, and a story board) for The Sandlot to create fun, family-friendly activities for the community.

If you’d like to support my project, any donation—big or small—is greatly appreciated and will go directly toward purchasing the materials needed to complete it.

You can donate here: https://gofund.me/11e56b8ca

Thank you for supporting both my Eagle Scout journey and a project that will benefit our community. I truly appreciate your generosity!

Sincerely,

Jackson Ritsema
