What:  All Parents welcome to attend the monthly Troop 219 Committee Mtg.  

When:  Wed, Sep 28 @ JLC @ 7:30

3.  Merit Badge University or for Troop 219 Merit Badge Blitz Planning meeting

What:  All Parents or Scout Volunteers this is the 2nd annual Troop 219 Merit Badge Blitz which takes place 27-29 October at the Joy Lutheran Church.  This is an educational opportunity for our boys to sign up and complete merit badges.

Who:  Any identified Merit Badge Counselors who have already volunteered to teach (so far we have Aviation, Personal Management, Communications, Citizenship of the Nation, music, art, scholarship, traffic safety and automotive maintenance)  We would like to offer 12 courses.  We will also be having the 2nd Annual Dutch Oven Master Chef team competition.  We have so many opportunities to teach our scouts.  If you want to be a Merit Badge Counselor please come; let me help you with the process. Additionally, any one who wishes to volunteer with food prep, overnight supervising of the scouts, or any other duties that come up during this 2 1/2 day event.  

When:  Planning Meeting 5 October, at 7:00 pm at JLC

You will be seeing many messages from me in the next couple of weeks as this Educational Offering requires a lot of support to ensure its success.  Scouts will be allowed to take a minimum of 3 merit badges and possibly 4 depending on the number of instructors.

*the first person to spot a mistake on this email and respond by email will receive a candy bar of their choice.

Troop 219 Scouts and Parents
 
Again our Scouts showed they are community-minded and dedicated.  Thank you to the nearly 20 scouts that participated in Trick or Treat in the Heat.  Congratulations to all of our new Scout Leadership:  Garret Nevells Senior Patrol Leader and his Assistant Senior Patrol Leaders, Joseph Groth and Sam Strickland.  Scouts you want to do something different or new bring it up to your leadership.
 
Scoutmaster conferences have been going on all this week.  I am not aware of anyone not having been able to schedule an appointment with Mr. Puterbaugh.  If there is anyone that has been missed, please get a hold of Mr. Puterbaugh as soon as possible 907.351.8826 (c)
 
Yes.  We do have a meeting this Sunday, 20 Sep 2015.  The meeting starts at 7:00.  Some scouts may have been given report times prior to this for Board of Reviews.  The merit badge offerings will be available for scouts to sign up at this meeting.  I will be forwarding the Troop 219 Guide which includes requirements which should be accomplished prior to the MB Lock in, as soon as we finalize the MB counselors who will be presenting.
