Please Read, Updated Schedule

Tonight's meeting, 7pm as always.  Our district Representative John Gower cannot come due to a personal matter. Scouts should still present themselves in their uniform, ready for elections.  All boys that need a board of review for rank advancement please be prepared.  Time allowing, we will do what we can to promote those who are ready and prepared. If you have completed merit badges, please get the blue card in so that you can receive merit badges at the Court of Honor.

April 3 is Spring Break, no meeting.

April 10th First meeting back after break, and we are having a Court of Honor at 7pm.  Families are welcome to come.  Please bring a snack to pass (desserts, fruit, chips, drinks, whatever)

Wednesday night meeting

 Reminder that our District Rep John Gower will be at our meeting tonight.  All scouts should dress neatly in their uniform.  Committee members and parents who want to meet with John at 6:00 P.M. feel welcome to come.

Wednesday night meeting

On Wednesday night, be sure to wear your uniform (as you always should).  We will have a visitor from the District.  All scouts should be on best behavior, and be ready to greet our district representative.  Also, be prepared for the scout elections!  Think about what position you would like to have for the next 6 months!  See you Wednesday night!


Reminder for tonight at 3:15 Probate Court for rank and merit badge



Reminder:  Today March 26th at 3:15PM Troop 1 will meet at Probate Court chambers.  The scouts will observe court operations and at the conclusion of court, Judge Mike Cooper will explain and discuss
the roll of the courts in a constitutional government.  This event will qualify for attendance at a public meeting for class rank up and also for the communications merit badge.

Bring your book and we will see you there.

Note:  The court room is on the back side of the Alpine Center.  If you enter from the round about, come down to the right  the signs for the probate court (Not the District Court).  Do not go all the way to the street that runs behind the high school or you have gone too far.  Scoutmaster's red vehicle will be there.  Come in the doors at the corner of the building and turn right—go to the end and enter that court room.

Remember to be quiet and not jump around and fidget.
