COTTONWOOD Fundraiser

Posted on Apr 23 2026 - 11:12am

Troop 1001,

Yes, it’s that time of year again! Time to show our Scout Spirit and support the Troop’s biggest fundraiser of the year—the Cottonwood Art Festival. 
 
 
We need maximum assistance and participation!!
 
Adults! We REALLY need your help on Thursday and Friday while school is still in session. I know it’s a big ask, but if you have the ability to flex your time or take PTO, it benefits the Troop immensely. 
 
Thank you for all you do to make our program amazing for our boys!
 
YIS, 
Chris Dudley
Cottonwood Chair

Troop Swim Test - MAY 11th

Posted on Apr 23 2026 - 11:11am
The Troop's annual swim test will be held on Monday 5/11 from 7-9 pm in the outdoor pool at the JCC
 
$10 per person (please bring exact change).  You must sign up a time here and fill out this WAIVER.  We need adult volunteer help to run the event.  Register HERE to swim and to help
 
Aaron Family Jewish Community Center
 
Completion of a BSA Swim Test is required prior to YOUR participation in ANY aquatic activity with the Troop, and must be completed every year (even if you passed it last year)

The most common reason it's needed is for Summer Camp BUT it is required for any water activities including if the troop has a canoeing campout or visits a watering hole of any kind. Adults & scouts BOTH will need this swim test completed in order to participate in any pool and/or lakefront activities.
