Planning for 75th anniversary scouting presentation
PLC NOTE: We need historical help please see Mr. Gould if you are interested in being part of the historian team. We have 2 Troop level positions open!!
Calling all Quartermasters!!
Sep 25
9:00 am to 1:00 pm T48 Garage clean out and up.
Colonial Heights Presbyterian Church
Patrols: Plan, organize and be ready to execute your activity for the 75th celebration. Think about positive Scout oriented (YOUTH LED) interactions with guests as well as fellow Troop members along the lines of a “Webelos Night” or the “Scout Fair” (from 2019 E.D.G.E.). (No Fires)
Patrols: Develop a tri-fold poster board with content that best exhibits who you are as a patrol. Think about the patrol activities you have done over the last year+ which have forced these realities. Use photos and stories to leverage the patrol method in your graphical portrayal of your experiences. Position all your members to be ready to share and elaborate on the experiences with new scouts.
