We will hold our second skills instruction session of May via Zoom tomorrow (Thursday) from 7:00-8:30.

You’ll experience the “E” and “D” in “EDGE” [Explain / Demonstrate]. This should help you later be “guided” and “enabled” to demonstrate the skill yourself!

Skills that may be included:

Tent set-up
Fire-building
Axe-yard safety
First Aid Kit Assembly

If you already know some of these skills, feel free to join to review, and in support of your fellow Scouts!

And if you’re working on a rank requirement you’d like to either discuss, explain, or demonstrate, join the meeting and be ready!

ZOOM notes

The meeting details will be shared in a separate email.
If you use your camera, remember to consider your background, and in line with YPT best practices, please join from a “shared” room in your house, if possible – living room, dining room, kitchen, etc.

We’ll see you at 7:00!

Hello Troop 24 Family,

You may have heard that Cindy Rayfield’s family had a fire in their home on Friday. Everyone is ok but they are displaced due to damage to their home.

A GoFundMe page has been set up by friends. Cindy and Chance have been long time loyal members of the Troop 24 family, and we are asking that you support them during this difficult time.

If interested in donating now – please visit the GoFundMe page.

Thank you for your help.

Congratulations to Troop 24’s newest Eagle Scout, Steven Sanduski.

Troop 24 has reservations to attend Camp Tesomas July 12-18, 2020. Currently, Camp Tesomas staff is planning to hold summer camp in 2020 if they are allowed by state guidelines and regulations regarding COVID-19 and social distancing. However, the Centers for Disease Control and Wisconsin Department of Health have not yet decided whether summer camps will be allowed.

We are asking Troop 24 members to answer a brief survey regarding your opinion on whether the troop should attend Camp Tesomas if permitted. Please let us know your concerns in the “Comments” section of the survey.
