We will be ordering custom Name Badges for Scouts and Scout Leaders.  The Troop will be covering part of the cost so the cost will only be $10 per badge.

Please wear your uniform or if you can't manage it, your neckers and be prepared with your scout handbooks and ideas to work through with your patrols. It will be a busy year! We also have our first event coming up quickly - Shoot swim and climb is on the calendar the the cut-off for registration is September 1 - the actual event is September 11-12 - all the details and registration is here - https://neworleans56.mytroop.us/node/2983 Make sure you have those health forms (part A and B is all that is required for less than 72 hours) and it is for ALL ATTENDEES (adults and scouts) for your safety.

Movie Night?

Picnic in the park?

What a great time at summer camp! Again thank you to Mr. David, Mr. Richard, Mr. Stephen and Ms. Anne for their time and energy taking care of our scouts. Our SPL and ASPL Vivian and Langston were awesome as well! Lots of learning and fun! The earnings report has been posted on the calendar page but all scouts have received an updated advancement report in their email today. Next up! Summer plans! Reminder that all patrols should be planning their adventure for patrols, the troop, both. Akum Bedi is your new webmaster and can assist with getting the word out!
