| T900 Scout Reminders - May 22, 2008
All,
Before we scatter to the four winds this holiday, some reminders
regarding upcoming Troop 900 Scout events:
On 26 May (Memorial Day) the Troop puts flags out in Prince George.
Mr Hagerich is going to head this up; Scouts who committed to do this
be at the Scout Hut NLT 7:30 AM to put the flags out. Mr Hagerich will
announce the time for flags in.
On the 26th following flags out, Mr Hagerich will continue to work
on the communications merit badge and provide assistance with the
pre-requisites for the Environmental Sciences merit badge for those
Scouts signing up for that badge at summer camp. Both merit badges are
required for Eagle Scout.
Prince George has a Memorial Day ceremony at the old Prince George
Court House. Scouts participating in that event need to be at the
Court House NLT 9:30 AM on the 26th. Look for Mr Shumar, Mr Hagerich
or Mr Flickinger…we’ll be in Scout uniform.
Need commitments and payment for summer camp by 3 June. Cost for
camp is $230. If unable to make full payment by the 3rd, please talk
to the Scoutmaster. It is very important we know who is attending camp
by the 3rd. Over the next couple meetings, we’ll get the Scouts signed
up for the merit badges and activities they will participate in at
camp.
Need to know who (adults and Scouts) is going to attend the Troop
campout on 14-15 June. The plan is to spend Saturday at the Beach with
some possible other activities on Sunday. The beach and the camp site
are on a Naval Base, so I need everybody’s name for gate clearance,
etc. For those concerned: we won’t be camping right on the beach!
Adults and Scouts attending the June campout; take the safe swim
defense course offered online at http://olc.scouting.org/ once
completed, print a copy of the certificate and bring it to the meeting
on 10 June.
3 June is also book review for Scouts needing that.
3 June is our troop OA elections. It is very important that all the
Scouts attend this meeting on time so they can cast their votes! All
Scouts have an obligation to vote in this important selection of their
peers to Scouting’s National Honor Society. We’ll talk about this more
next meeting.
Nelson L. and Thomas S. have a board of review on 27 May.
Next Troop Committee meeting is 7:00 PM on 18 June; all adults are
invited to attend.
There are copies of the updated Troop calendar in the Scout Hut.
Thank you Simone Woodford!
I want to thank again all the adults who helped with the Mafeking
campout: Buck Buchanan, Aaron Cain, Phil Hagerich, Carlos Ramos, Gary
Woodford, Joe LaHaye, Frank Schneck, Nick Doukas, Chris Douglas, Koz,
Lowell Flickinger, Charlie Vance and Beth Shumar. Thank you for
bringing the spirit of Lord Baden-Powell to life; It couldn’t have
been done without you! We’ll announce the top scoring patrol at the
court of honor in June. I think we have established that Chris Douglas
needs to bring his spot light (or search light) to all future
campouts!
Scouts: reminder, dues are 0.75 cents per meeting. This money is
used to buy new equipment, repair old equipment, buy propane and
charcoal for campouts and badges from the Scout Shop. Paying dues on
time and in full is part of Scout Spirit…thanks.
Scouts: it is important to wear the proper Scout uniform to
meetings to include the neckerchief. Aside from showing Scout Spirit,
the uniform identifies you as someone who is committed to follow the
Scout Oath and Law….which makes you a standout among your peers. Only
Adult leaders and JASMs have the option of not wearing the
neckerchief. If you have lost your neckerchief, you can purchase
another from the troop. The Scouts who just crossed over will get
their troop neckerchief at a later date. We’ll officially go to the
class B uniform for summer sometime after school is out, but until
then wear the uniform right and with pride!
Thank you!
-Bob Shumar SM T900

| April 4, 2008 Scouts and Scouters, From
the SPL:
There are a few announcements I need to make:
- Very Important: Every Scout who is going to the Merit Badge
Weekend needs to know what merit badges they will be taking by the
next meeting. (The 8th). See the attached sheet for the latest
information on merit badges and class times.
- The PLC decided to leave early Saturday morning for merit badge
weekend instead of Friday night. We need to meet at the Scout Hut at
6:45 AM on Saturday, April 19 so we can get in place for the opening
ceremony and before the classes start. We should be back at the Scout
Hut by 11:00 AM on Sunday, April 20th. Scouts need to eat or bring a
breakfast and can bring a bag lunch or buy lunch from the OA. We will
prepare dinner and Sunday breakfast as Patrols.
- We will hand out T Brady Saunders Summer Camp 2008 Guides at the
meeting on Tuesday the 8th.
The following Scouts have Scoutmaster Conferences on the 8th:
Ian D.
Michael D.
Nelson L.
Joey L.
Don’t forget to pay your dues! That is part of Scout Spirit and you
can’t get promoted if your dues are behind. Dues are now 75 cents.
Talk to the Scribe if you don’t know if you owe anything.
Remember Donut orders are due if you are participating in that.
Aaron’s Eagle Court of Honor will be held on Sunday the 6th of
April at Gregory Memorial Chapel. Scouts need to be there at 2:00 PM.
EVERYONE IS INVITED! Reception follows the ceremony in the Fellowship
Hall. Practices will be held on Saturday the 5th at 1:00 PM for those
who have parts in the ceremony. Aaron will talk to you if he has you
in his ceremony. Wear full uniform including the sash.
Other events this weekend: Aaron's Ceremony at Sacred Heart is at
12:15 on Sunday 6th of April to re-consecrate his Eagle project.
Everyone is welcome.
Doug & Chris' awarding and recognition of the Ad Altere Dei
Religious Award is also at Sacred Heart during the 11 AM Mass. Whoever
attends either should be in full Scout uniform w/ MB sash.

**************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************
From the Scoutmaster:
I need to know ASAP which adults plan on attending the Merit Badge
weekend on 19-20 April. I do not plan on taking the trailer, but I do
want to take some Troop equipment; if anybody has a pick-up truck or
something along that line to help us move out that would be great.
Thank you!
-Bob

Howdy to one and all
I haven’t sent one of these out in awhile so let me
get us all caught up!
Our next big event is the Crater Winter Challenge,
25 – 27 JAN 08. This event is at Albrights and each patrol will sue their
land navigation skills to move around the camp and demonstrate other basic
Scout skills. Cost will be $18.00 per person ($ 10.00 for food and $ 8.00
for the registration and patch).
A few Scouts are interested on participating in the
Patrick Henry program sponsored by the Council. It will be 26 Jan, 2 & 9
FEB. Scouts can earn their Public Speaking and Communication merit
badges. So far, John S. and Matt S. are the only 2 Scouts interested.
Anyone else interested needs to talk to my tomorrow night…next week at the
latest. Cost is $6
February 9 is our Annual Scout Hut Clean Up…please
help with this as it is our annual service project to thank Gregory
Memorial for their sponsorship. We’ll start about 9 AM and finish early
afternoon. We will also feed you!
Sunday FEB 10 is Scout Sunday and Annual Pancake
Breakfast for Church. Plan on your Scout being at the Church from about
7:30 to Noon on that day.
22 -24 FEB will be a Troop ski trip. Costs, etc.,
are TBD. We will need some chaperones and drivers for this one so if you
can help out please step up.

Scouts to our Troop meeting. They are going to cross over from Pack 910
on 9 FEB so lets give them a good welcome!
If you are a 1st Class Scout and will be

Saunders? There is no cost for this. Selected Scouts will attend a
training day on 17 May, work 22 – 28 June and then one other week during
summer camp this year.
Parents…there is no cost for this!!!!
If you are interested, see MR. Buchanan for an
application.
A few key events for down the road.
Our Spring Break 22 – 26 MAR backpacking
trip is starting to come together. This is going to be a very strenuous
event. As a result, some Scouts are going to be excluded…this is for
their safety and the safety of others. We will plan on a trip to
Albrights 28 – 30 MAR as a training weekend for our newer Scouts and those
who are not able to make the AT trip.
The calendar we handed out at the
Christmas Party has the wrong for the dates for Summer camp. The correct
dates are 6 – 12 July 08.
Our Camping Trip in May is now 2 -4 May. We made
the change so we would not interfere with Mothers Day and some Council
events.
Fund Raising. We are selling peanuts from the
Virginia Diner to help pay for Summer Camp, the Ski Trip and other
events. If your son DID NOT bring home a packet see myself or Mr Hegrich.

The SM conference is scheduled for

TROOP RECHARTER
It is that time of
year again. Scouts need to be thinking about renewing their subscription
to Boy’s Life. If scouts have money in their account, this can be used.
Also, to clear up our records for the year, any Scout with an outstanding
balance for Troop dues will that money taken from their account.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY
Let’s welcome Thomas
Gladin into adulthood! (This still means you must listen to your mom)
Preston will hit 18 later in the month. Also a Happy Natal Day to Jimmie,

we do not have to cook (except for Mrs. Bailey who must make Cherry Yum
Yum).
Mrs. Story will be
getting with parents for some items that we will need.
SCOUTMASTER
MINUTE
Maps are great things. They help us to
know where we are, guide us to where we want to go and tell us information
about things that we may find or need to be aware of on the way to our
destination.
Scouts have several maps at their
disposal. The Scout Law, Oath, Motto and Slogan help us everyday as we
journey through life. They provide boundaries, ask us to be aware of our
surroundings and of other people, tell us that some things are very
important to being a good citizen and remind us that we have certain
responsibilities not only to ourselves but to other people.
Are you putting your maps to the best use?
Yours in Scouting,
Mr. Orr
FROM
ALL OF US ON THE COMMITTEE OF TROOP 900 – WE WNT TO WISH EVERY FAMILY A
SAFE AND JOYOUS HOLIDAY SEASON!!
