June - Upcoming Events & reminders

Upcoming Events & Reminders
 

As of June 1 we are on Summer Schedule – uniforms are not required, unless otherwise indicated for special events. Our Monday meetings for June include preparations for summer camp and work on specific merit badges. All scouts are encouraged to attend, even if they are not attending summer camp, as we plan to work on some badges in Weymouth through August.

Summer Camp will be held from June 28th until August 5th at Cliff Island.

Information packets will be distributed in mid to late June, along with merit badge information. If do not plan to attend camp, please let Mr. Chase know.

Adults are encouraged to attend camp – we need your help with the programs and staffing. As a reminder, all adults planning to attend camp must be registered with the troop and must have completed Safe Scouting training. If you are planning to attend camp, please let Mr. Chase know as soon as possible.


Three important events are planned – all require full uniforms, and are significant opportunities for our Troop to be visible in the community. All scouts are strongly urged to attend

    1. All members of the troop and friends and family are encouraged to attend a special mass recognizing and honoring the 10 scouts who recently received the Ad Altare Dei award. This mass will be held at 10 AM on Sunday, June 3rd at the Immaculate Conception, with a reception following at the Parish Center
    2. Our Troop has been asked to participate in the opening ceremonies for the Relay for Life on Friday Evening, June 15th.  More information will be provided soon. Please check the BLOG for updates 
    3. On June 24th we’ll be meeting at the East Weymouth Congregational Church to present a plaque to the congregation recognizing our start there over 100 years ago. In addition we’ll be presenting several honors to our Eagle scouts, and their Eagle palms.
