First Aid Month is upon us!

Like many Scout skills, First Aid must be practiced and repeated to become part of your Scoutcraft tool-kit, even after the merit badge is earned!

To prepare for Thursday’s meeting, take a few moments to review Tenderfoot requirements 4a, b, c, d and 5a.

If you’ve mastered those, you can move on to Second Class 6a, 6b, 6c, 6d, 6e.

Those of you who have mastered these skills can act as coaches for the younger Scouts, in anticipation of Patrol-based skill-checks at the end of the meetings.

More to follow in tomorrow’s announcement!

VOLUNTEERS NEEDED for an Eagle Board of Review on Thursday April 11th

The troop is in need of 3-4 adults to sit on an Eagle Board of Review on Thursday April 11th at 7:00 pm. Sitting on an Eagle Board is a very rewarding opportunity to be a part of a Scout’s final step to achieving the rank of Eagle. If you have not sat on an Eagle Board before, we can provide you with some resources to familiarize yourself with topics that are discussed at the Board. Additionally, the Board is run by our Council Representative.

We will meet at the Riverside Presbyterian Church in the Parlor. The time commitment is approximately 1 to 1- 1/2 hours.

If you can help one of our Scouts earn his Eagle, please email me at dmgmitro@aol.com. Thank you!
