Scouts worked on advancements, ate leftover cake, and did a knot tying relay race. The Church graciously gave the Troop $100 to give to a local organization you want to support. Text your patrol leader with your recommendations and the PLC will vote at the next PLC meeting.
March 4th, 6pm PLC Meeting
Please come if you are part of the PLC. Food provided while you plan the upcoming meetings and decide where to send the $100 donation. Let SPL know if you can’t attend.
March 4th, 7pm Regular meeting
We will probably pack up Scout Sunday displays.
8:30 - 10am March 31st, Easter Sunday and May 11, Blossomtime Parade
Will you be in town? If we have enough Scouts, the Church would like us to make a pancake breakfast before the service on Easter. Parents are needed Easter Sunday from 7:30am-9am for cooking then supervise the serving of the meal. We also need to know if you are available to march in the Blossom time parade. Everyone, fill out the form below to let us know if you are available for either/both/none of these events.
