Renewed Focus on Advancement

Greetings Scouts & Campers,

There is a renewed interest and energy on advancement and I want to shout out to many of you who have met new rank requirements. Keep going! Now is the time to finish those persnickety requirements. If you are stuck on one or two, you are not alone. Sometimes one or two requirements can be difficult to achieve and you will need some help. Please ask for any help you need. One example is that at next week’s meeting, Marcus will be giving the troop an update on invasive species. I think this is a great way we all work together and learn at the same time. I know we are looking forward to this update.

Early in September we will be doing Cyber Chip Training for both middle school and high school. This is a requirement and getting this training early will be good for the Troop and help the new scouts earn Scout rank. Eagle scout and back in Concord from the sunny west is John Rzepczynski, who has volunteered to help with this training. Thanks in advance John; welcome back and thanks for helping out.

We still have not received our Troop photos and completed merit badges from camp. I called over a week ago and will call again to see where this information is.

For those earning First Class, we will be handing out troop neckerchiefs! For those First Class and above who have not received one, please let me know.

Do your good turn daily!

YiS,
Mr. Duggan
