honor. Twenty-one badges were back
ordered. Don is running new reports for
each boy, he will hand them out and review them with the boys. Please remember to bring your scout book to
the meetings.
Scoutmaster
Report: Tom asked for the
dates of summer camp in 2004 at Ben Delatour – July 18 – 24th. Tom Tracy will be getting us registered and
making the arrangements for the overnight stay at the AFB in Cheyenne.
Tom asked if anyone
was interested in attending the Long Range planning meeting for Camp
Cornhusker. No one was interested in
attending so Tom will email them our opinion.
The troop will be
attending the Freedom Fest Jubilee at Mahoney State Park on October 17th
– 19th. Cost and more
information will follow at a later date.
Mitchell Snyder
and his mom are working on a troop website.
Lori made a motion that we purchase the domain for $25, Tom Tracy
seconded the motion – it passed unanimously to purchase BSAtroop25.org. The committee discussed what we want to gain
from our website and what information we want to have listed. We are organizing a committee to check into
safety, passwords, etc.
We discussed scout
spirit, venture crew, and the new scouts program. We really need parent participation at the meetings to keep the
boys on task.
Tom mentioned that
the boys would like to find khaki pants to wear with their scout shirts instead
of BSA pants. Mary said she would
check at Wal-Mart and Lori will check at Kohl’s. Tom said that the cotton polyester content should be either
60%-40% or 70%-30%.
We talked about
the insurance for the trailer and the contents. Melanie will do some more checking and see if she can obtain
copies of the endorsements for our file showing the coverages that were added
for the troop.
