Scouts,

White's Chapel Patriotic Services are scheduled for Sunday, June 30th at 9:30 and 11:00.

Will you be in town? Would you want to help with the Flag Ceremony at one of these services??

The scouts of Troop 928 and Troop 1928 are invited to participate in the Presentation of the Colors during the begining of each service.
A minimum of 4 Scouts per service is needed (1 caller, 1 flag bearer and 2 color guard). Additional scouts are welcome.

There is a free church wide brunch going on all morning. So come early or stay late and enjoy the brunch!
Scouts and their families are invited to stay for the church service but they do not have to.

You would need to arrive at 9 for the 9:30 service and 10:30 for the 11:00 service.
We will meet in the cafe area by the Bridge and Grace Chapel.

RSVP to me and/or sign up on the Troop website. Please indicate which service you will be attending.

Thanks,

Merit Badge counselor information

We made a large number of Merit Badge counselor updates. I encourage all Scouts to click on the Merit Badge Resources link to review the current Merit Badge Counselor list in order to determine the current counselor for your area of interest.

Parents we are always looking for volunteers. We would love to add you to the list of Merit Badge Counselors if your vocation or hobby matches a Merit Badge. Our biggest needs are Camping, Hiking, Environmental Science, Orienteering, and then any Merit Badge for which we have either one or no counselors.

Please contact me if you have any questions regarding the Merit Badge counselor updates. (click on "read more" to see name and email FF )

If you are an adult who missed renewing during last year's recharter and would still like to attend summer camp or one of the treks, or be otherwise official with the troop, we can still help if you act fast. Please note: your form may not be able to be processed in time if the various signatures of the personnel needed to validate it have left town for summer. Do Not Procrastinate.

Council requires a valid YPT to accompany your BSA form to process. Please ensure your BSA form is filled out completely including background check authorization. Incomplete applications missing last years deadline require a new form. If this pertains to you, you have been personally notified.

Contact Trina Hall ASAP at membership@troop928.org and lets get you in.
