BSA Troop 934
Troop-
Tomorrow, 8/26, is our first meeting of the year. We will have troop and patrol elections, scoutmaster conferences and boards of review. Please make sure you attend. It is our ONLY meeting before our COH on September 9.
Also, the last PLC meeting of the current term is tomorrow at 6 before the general meeting
Tomorrow night at 6pm is our preseason annual picnic. If you wish to run for SPL and have not communicated this to your scoutmaster, please do so as soon as possible. We look forward to seeing everyone for food and fun. You do not need your uniform
From the desk of Mrs. Settlemire
I hope you are all well. It turns that on this past Thursday night, the council communicated some changes to the Popcorn Program. As much as we have tried to get everything arranged based on their changes, there are just too many parts that require coordination with other people. We are going to have to reschedule the parents popcorn meeting that we had planned for Monday, August 19th during the picnic.
My apologies, there are just too many issues to be worked out in one business day to have the meeting on Monday. We will announce our popcorn plans shortly.
Please note that tomorrow night’s Picnic is a class B event (scout t-shirt), drop of your scout at 6:00 pm and return at 8:00 for pick up. Leinbach Park – 3635 Sally Kirk Rd, Winston-Salem, NC 27106. .
Since there is only one scout meeting (8/26/19) before the Court of Honor on 9/9/19, Mr. Marvin will be at the picnic to record awards. I will back him up as much as I can.
We are planning to host a Parents Popcorn Meeting during the picnic at the church in the Youth Commons (the big room in the scout area). If you are unable to come, we will get you the information. But please try to come, we have a lot of exciting popcorn changes this year that I think it will make the whole thing easier and less stressful!
Many of you may remember that in the last several years, that you can sell on-line popcorn beginning on August 1st – this year, there is free shipping on on-line popcorn orders! This is a great way to get your popcorn season finished early and with no hand delivery! If you are interested in selling on-line, please look at our website for more information.
Our first official meeting of the fall is Monday August 26th at 7:00 pm in the Scout Area at Mt Tabor UMC.
Our next Court of Honor will be on September 9th at 7:00 pm in the Alspaugh Worship Center at Mt Tabor UMC. Your scouts’ completions from Camp Raven Knob have been distributed to you and shared with Bill Marvin (our troop Awards Chair). If your scout has other awards or merit badges that he has completed, please turn those in to Mr. Marvin at the meeting on August 26th.
We look forward to seeing everyone back this fall and watch our website for more updates
Dear Scout Family,
I hope you are well. I wanted to let you know that we have a family that needs your prayers and thoughts in our Boy Scout Troop.
Many of you may have met sweet Caleb Marshall who bridged up from our little brother Cub Scout Pack a couple of years ago. His mother, Jenny, was recently diagnosed with stage 4 Non Hodgins Lymphoma and is currently going through Chemotherapy. She will continue with treatments through the fall. I am including a meal train link if you would like to bring or send Caleb’s family a meal during her treatment. Jenny and her husband, Jeff, have two children. Jenny is a teacher in our community. Caleb’s sister is a member of the Female Troop, 964, at Mt Tabor UMC as well. As you can imagine this is an emotional time for the family and they would appreciate your support as they go through this time. Meal Train Link – https://www.mealtrain.com/trains/gw946o
If you are able to share food with the Marshall Family, they would be very grateful.

Congratulations to all our new candidates for the Order of the Arrow who were called out this summer. This weekend is your first opportunity to take your Ordeal.

This is an excellent opportunity to be an Elangamat and guide your brothers through their weekend.
