We hope you are all having a good August, relaxing and enjoying some family time before the school year and scouts resumes. Troop 24 will have its first meeting of this school year on Thursday, September 7th at 7pm in our usual location, the Riverside Presbyterian Church gym. Following that, we will meet every Thursday at 7pm for the entire school year, with the exception of announced holidays.

Our next campout will take place September 8-10. We will be camping at Blackwell Forest Preserve in Warrenville, Illinois, and attending the Revolutionary War Reenactment at Cantigny Park on Saturday, Sept 9th. Look for sign up information to be posted soon. Scouts who sign up for this campout should plan to meet Tuesday, August 29th at 7pm for menu planning and troop equipment preparations.

The Troop Committee will have its next planning meeting on Tuesday, September 5th at 7pm, and then every first Tuesday of the month for the school year. We meet in the Riverside Presbyterian Church Social Hall. All parents and leaders who would like to help with troop event planning are encouraged to attend.

Looking forward to seeing you on these dates!
