More parental involvement needed

Posted on Nov 15 2023 - 8:45pm

As a large troop we have a lot of requests for assistance on people’s time; however, we need more parental assistance than we are currently receiving. There was less parental participation for Cottonwood than we could have used and we still need quite a few volunteers for Winter Camp. We need parental help in order to function and we need parents that aren’t assisting to begin doing so. A lot of the work for the troop falls on a small group of people and some of those people have kids that are going to be ageing out of the troop and others are getting burned out. Please help so that all of our boys can have a great scout experience and the burden is more evenly distributed.

Upcoming Needs:

  • Flags IN Saturday, November 18th
  • Davis Jackson’s Eagle Project, November 18-19
  • Next Campout is November 17-19, Webelos Woods

Parent/Committee Meeting Notes - Monday Nov 13

Posted on Nov 15 2023 - 8:45pm

Attached below are the notes from the Parent/Committee meeting that was held Monday November 13th.

High Adventure: Dec 2023 and Summers 2024 and 2025

Posted on Nov 15 2023 - 8:02pm
Philmont
Winter Philmont: The crew would probably leave Richardson on Dec 31, 2023 go directly to Philmont, overnight in the backcountry on Jan 2nd and 3rd, Return to Philmont base on Jan 4th, and ski at Red River on Jan 5th and 6th and return to Richardson on Jan 7.  The minimum crew is 4 scouts and 2 adults over 21.
 
Summer Philmont 2024: The troop does not have a date, although almost any date is available. The minimum crew size is 6 scouts and 2 adults.
 
Summer Philmont 2025: The crew has a date of June 22nd-July 4th. This is a prime date as Cimarron has its annual Rodeo on July 4th and the crew could see it before departing Cimarron.  The minimum crew size is 6 scouts and 2 adults. Remember scouts presently in the 7th grade will have completed 8th grade by then and are eligible to go in 2025. To keep this date the troop must make a $150 per person deposit before Dec 1st, so we need commitments as soon as possible.
 
Northern Tier
Summer Northern Tier 2024: The troop does not have a date, although any even-number date is available. The minimum crew size is 6 scouts and 2 adults.
 
If you are interested in any of these trips or have questions, email Mike Reisinger at mj1234r@sbcglobal.net  

Popcorn Sales at Tom Thumb throughout November

Posted on Nov 15 2023 - 8:01pm
We have secured a  location to finish off our popcorn sales at: 
Tom Thumb
18212 Preston Rd
Dallas 75252
 
The manager is letting us setup a table inside out of the way of traffic for each weekend in November. 
 
I am going to add these to Trails end tonight for those who want to sign up and get to that next level. I am hoping we have a big push here at the end in order to get rid of our last bit of product. This will hopefully be gone in 2-3 weekend sales! I also have ordered chocolate covered pretzels so if you are ready to start selling those, they will be available November 9th!!
 
Your Popcorn Kernal,
