Congratulations to the 60 scouts who enjoyed a week at Camp Davy Crockett for summer camp. You completed 103 merit badges plus two Snorkeling BSA and six Stand-up Paddleboarding BSA. At least two Scout ranks and two Tenderfoot ranks were earned. Three scouts and one parent completed BSA Lifeguard training (if their First Aid/CPR card is current). No report on the two attempting to swim a mile! Or Up with the Sun Fun Runs.
So what’s next? Hopefully you are settling back into home life and ready for an outdoors troop meeting on Tuesday at the fields next to Rock Springs Elementary.
For those who were in the Eagle Bound program or completed early rank requirements in camp, it is really important that you see Mr. Hasler for a check of your scout handbook to ensure our records are aligned. You might be much closer to finishing up the next rank than you think!
97 pages of Incomplete merit badge sheets have been created to guide you on who to work with as counselor(s) and what is left to learn and demonstrate. It is expected that you engage with these listed counselors (a few we have to determine who is appropriately certified) to finish up at your own pace. Some merit badges really have just a simple requirement to accomplish while others need more study or have a project to complete.
Please be aware that the August 3rd troop meeting will be the cutoff date for advancement to be recognized at the August 17th Court of Honor. Otherwise the following COH is in November.

We are excited to introduce the new pastor of Colonial Heights Presbyterian church, Rev. J. David Randolph. David received his Bachelor of Science degree in Financial Management from Clemson University in 2011 and his Master of Divinity degree from Columbia Theological Seminary in 2017. He moves here after serving at First Presbyterian Church in Oxford, Mississippi. His passion is for individual growth in Christian discipleship. He and his wife Katherine have two young children, Cragon and Betsy, and are excited to move to Northeast Tennessee and start their new journey in our community. Rev Randolph shares a love for scouting coming from a scouting background in his youth and is an Eagle Scout . We enjoyed welcoming Rev Randolph with a traditional pounding . Unfortunately we have a few missing that could not be in attendance but it was a great night @ Colonial Heights Presbyterian Church with Troop 48 and T48G
1. “Churches need to remember that this new minister often doesn’t know anyone in the congregation. Hospitality is so important and often more important than many longtime members who have never moved realize.
2. “Perhaps even more important is how they receive that minister’s spouse. When a married minister moves, he often has some ‘built-in’ friendships (coworkers, etc.). Many will want to spend time with him. However, a spouse can quickly feel isolated and uncertain as to where she might belong or fit in.3. “Transition is hard. Period. Churches sometimes don’t like to hear this because they then think something must be wrong. Transitions (even the best of them) take time, patience and understanding.”
The following supplies are ideas for Pounding Gifts for the new Pastor at CHPC
