Well done everyone!.

The new Patrols are up and the Patrol Leaders and Assistant Patrol Leaders are assigned.  We will get the patrol patches as well as the position patches before summer camp.

Tomorrow is the last meeting - that means Pizza, fun and regrouping of the patrols! Also we have a mandator survey to help we your friendly scoutmaster get everything organized - all attendees need to complete this ASAP: https://forms.gle/EoAPMpZL2rhxvqWE7. Also remember for your shopping list:

We do not have enough scouts from any patrol to use our regular patrols so we will be making temporary patrols just for this trip.

Patrols were selected by rank and then age.  We attempted to have them equally weighted. Adults are assigned to each patrol to assist and to eat but not to do all the work.  Two  scouts per tent with no more than a two year age gap between tentmates. Tentmates DO NOT have to be in the same patrol, but they must be the same gender :)  

Summer camp is a little over a month away.  We still have a few spots open for Scouts and Adults.  The deadline to register is Next week, April 28th.

Good Evening, Troop 56,

There still seems to be a good bit of confusion about how to plan the troop meetings and how to use the planner.

The scouts/patrols are expected to plan an organize the meetings. This does not mean they have to be the instructor for the actual meeting. The meeting can be something that requires an outside expert or adult to teach whatever skills.
