Good work on painting the patrol gear this past Saturday.  The scouts organized the gear by patrol, made sure the gear was equitable, and they color coded the gear. We need to make this a yearly activity and update the checkout sheets accordingly.

Miles’ eagle project made a lot of progress and like every project, there are always adjustments to be made. While the Eagle project result matters, it is the process that we want to make sure gets addressed and this is every Eagle candidate’s opportunity to lead. Miles led the troop in some good carpentry skills (measure twice and cut once as they say). Miles will need more help to complete the project and please see the opening announcements above for more information.

Two scouts made progress on advancement this past weekend: Marcus earned Scout rank and Charlie earned Tenderfoot rank.  Please remember to bring your books to each meeting.

Justin and Aiden’s Eagle Court of Honor is Saturday, November 24 3 pm at the Scout House. All scouts are encouraged to attend and be a part of the ceremony.

Last Sunday the Troop and Holy Family collected 253 Turkeys which were distributed to Cross Roads Shelter in Boston. Great work.

On November 19, the PLC met and planned camping trips and meetings through most of the school year. John R came and used is NYLT leadership to help our PLC improve leadership skills. Nice job.

As our Holiday party approaches, please reach out to any and all past Troop 132 alumni.  Please pass the word that all past scouts and scouters are welcome to join us on December 18 at our Troop meeting holiday party.
 
Happy Thanksgiving and this is a time to do a good turn daily. There are lots of opportunities .
