Troop 262 Reminders for the Week of November 1, 2009

Parents: Please plan to attend the Troop Committee Meeting, Monday, November 2, 6 p.m. in the St. Theresa Library. It is important for you to attend and find out how you can help the troop. Your involvement in Scouting will make a difference to your son and also the whole troop.

Beaver Patrol: You have City Flags this week, 5:30 p.m. at the Palm Springs City Hall. Please let’s have a good turnout.

Parents: Please plan to attend the meeting this Wednesday at 7 p.m. There are two people who would like to address you, first, Alec B. needs to tell you how you can help with his Eagle Project, and Marcel Vargas, BSA Field Representative, will be addressing you regarding Friends of Scouting. Please plan to attend.

Merit Badge Clinic is coming up on Saturday, November 7. The clinic is at Palm Desert LDS Church, 72960 Parkview Drive, Palm Desert. Please be at the clinic at 8:30 a.m. for registration.

Please also COME PREPARED: You will need pen, paper, and the merit badge worksheets for the class(es) you are taking. It is YOUR responsibility to print out the worksheets, review the requirements, and take care of any prerequisites–there is a link on the right side of this page to the worksheets.

Please come in full Class A Uniform, bring a water bottle, and a sack lunch if you are taking a full day class.

Please remember that a Scout is Courteous. The clinic is being held where people worship. Please remember to treat the property with the utmost respect. Only water will be allowed in the building; no food or other drink. You will be able to eat your lunch outside under the trees in the grass. Please keep the area clean and pick up after yourself.

Finally, DO NOT LEAVE THE CLINIC WITHOUT CHECKING OUT WITH YOUR SCOUTMASTER.
