This weeks troop meeting we are going to finish the planter boxes that we started last week and with the rest of the time we are going to do rank advancement. This is a great opportunity to finish up anything you need for this upcoming court of honor. And we will also have plenty of time for games so people can bring in new games for the troop meeting.

All scouts need to submit an updated annual medical form.  These forms are due June 14th and should be submitted to Mr. Barnard.

If you are going to SeaBase you will need to fill out out this form containing parts A, B, and C and the SeaBase risk advisory.  A Dr's signature is required on part C.  This is also good for summer camp.  Please turn in a copy of the form to Mr. Cutbill for SeaBase.

If you are going to summer camp you will need to fill out this form containing parts A, B, and C.  A Dr's signature is required on part C.

If you are not going to Summer camp  you can use this form containing parts A and B only.  No Dr's signature is required

Final payments for summer camp are due tonight.  There is still time to signup - If you have been sitting on the fence and want to go to camp bring your signup form and payment tonight!!!  Signups can happen later but the fee will be higher as the council will be imposing a late payment fee.
