Thanks to all who attended the ceremonies on Veterans Day and the Flag Retirement this weekend. As a reminder, we encourage parents, families and friends to join us at events like this to respect our veterans and their sacrifices. Please keep an eye out for opportunities to participate with your son and show him your support.
1. Ski trip money is due immediately - any stragglers must get their money in this Monday, Nov 23rd, along with any paperwork for equipment rentals. If you don't turn in your money and paperwork you will go on a waiting list and a scout from the wait list will take your space on this event.
2. Troop 2 annual registration and dues must be in by November 30th. All adults registering must attend a Safe Scouting meeting in mid December, date TBA
3. This weekend (11/21) there will be a campout at Valley Pines. Scouts will be expected to prepare lunch and dinner. Please dress warmly, and bring sufficient water for the day and evening.
4. For the month of November and December our Scoutmaster has challenged every scout to bring in bottles and cans - whoever collects the most will win a Game Stop giftcard grand prize. Other prizes will be awarded at our Christmas Party in December. Remember - a scout is TRUSTWORTHY - please count your cans and let the scoutmaster know how many you brought in during attendance.

Attendance reminder - Advancement and eligibility for event participation is driven by attendance. Our Scribe takes attendance at our meetings and events. Scouts are required to participate in our events, including gym nights, parades, flagging, awards nights, and our flag retirement ceremony in order to be eligible to attend Summer Camp and the Ski Trip, as well as other significant events throughout the year. Minimal attendance may result in wait listing for events.
