Interested in a Leadership Position?

Message:

Reach out to Easton or Scoutmaster Simmons! A reminder: leadership positions don't automatically carry forward year to year. The SPL re-appoints all roles, so if you served last year, you'll need to be re-appointed to continue. Scouts First Class and above need time in a leadership position to advance, but every Scout, regardless of rank, is welcome to serve.

If you are not camping this weekend, WE NEED YOU!!!

For the flags program, the troop works with the Canyon Creek Home Owners Association Flag Program to distribute flags for Memorial Day, the Fourth of July, Patriot Day, and Veterans Day. As a result, the troop is able to raise money to help fund activities for the scouts by receiving $1 dollar for each flag installed and another dollar for every flag retrieved and stored.

Please meet at TBC at 08:30 AM to get your route on More after the jump>>>>>

Action Needed: Cottonwood Sign-Up is Open!

Good Evening Troop 1001!

We are weeks away from October Cottonwood, and we need all hands on deck at this critical event.

Because Cottonwood is an adult-primary event (governed by our annual contract with the City of Richardson), we rely heavily on adult volunteers. We ran short on help in the spring, so please make volunteering a priority this fall to ensure a successful event.

Critical roles we need to fill:

Celebrating 60 Years of Troop 1001: Inspiring Gentlemen of Character, One Boy at a Time.
