Meeting Activities
Scouts worked on advancements, discussed supplies for Scout summer camp, and played with a bike and trailer again.
June 26, 5pm and possibly the weekend, Service Hours Opportunity
Weather permitting. Zach Arrans is working on his Quartermaster Rank for Sea Scouts. This is the rough equivalent to Eagle Scout. He is completing his project at the Coloma Rod and Gun Club on Tuesday and Wednesday. He'd like as much help from Scouts and Adults as possible. He will be starting each day at 5pm and working till close to dark. Bring work gloves, water and long pants. Scouts will be moving wooden boards to build an archery platform. Come out and help one of our own.
Tent Sign up!
The link below is for Scouts to sign up for tent setups. A couple of new things this year. 1) Columns are listed for scout or parent cell-phone numbers so a reminder text can be sent to those scouts signed up. 2) We need 2-3 scouts to help Mr. Dansfield with loading the trailer before a set-up. 3) Parents are also welcome to sign up for the setups. Their scout will get the credit for the parents' help.
Cook for Concerts
For Those helping this week: Thank you for agreeing to help serve at FCC's next summer concert, this coming Friday, June 28. We ask that you arrive at the church around 5 p.m. and begin working with Jim Dansfield and any other troop leaders in preparing the cook tent. If you're available also for helping set up for the concert itself, please reach out to Mr. Dansfield. Thank you -- we hope these opportunities are great for service hours and fundraising for the Troop!

Sign up here: Cook for Concerts
July 1st, PLC at 6pm then Elections at our regular 7pm meeting.
Think about what position you want to do. Most Scouts need a leadership position for advancements. There will be a presentation by Caring Connections at the beginning of the meeting. We will be indoors so they can use the screen.
Summer Camp, July 21-27
We have selected our leaders, the 2 groups will be decided soon. There will be more responsibilities and preplanning needed since we need to cook all meals ourselves that week. We will need to bring our own food for a shared meal so think of something that feeds 25 that we can make. We could also do special activities like tubing down a river, so check out what they offer and tell your leaders what you want to try. Reservations are needed before we get there. Get your physical forms ready. They need to be current (done after July 27, 2023).
We are going to Cole Canoe Base! Our Summer Camp week is July 21-27 and the cost per Scout is $385. There is a discount for siblings. Please email Mrs. Essig if you want to go to camp. Bring your payment to the next meeting and she will send you a link to update your Scout’s info so you can choose merit badge classes and water adventures. Merit Badge/Activity selection is open! Click on the following link and then update info for your Scout.
