Troop 5 Scoutmaster Announcements – May 14, 2024
We’re actively looking for more scouts and have many opportunities coming up for friends to visit.
- May 28th Court of Honor – invite some friends to come see our ceremony and all the badges you will get!
- May 29th Northside MS Spring Concert – we will be handing out programs as well as flyers about our troop inviting potential scouts to come visit
- June 1st Church Yard Sale – we will have an information booth with some scouting demonstrations (and selling camp cards) – tell your friends to stop by!
Lots of chances to get a potential scout to a troop activity and meet your First Class requirement #10! And more outings coming up this summer!
For those canoeing and camping this weekend, please refer to the pack list provided by Twin River Outfitters that we shared on the website: https://www.troop5norfolk.com/2024/05/13/canoeing-waiver-forms-and-pack-list/. Tents, stoves, and coolers will be provided by the troop. Meals are being coordinated by patrols. If you have your own lifejacket that you would like to bring, you may (optional, lifejackets will be provided). All scouts and adults must also complete the Twin River Outfitters waiver form at https://fh-sites.imgix.net/sites/448/2017/01/19223844/Release-1.pdf. Please check the weather forecast and plan accordingly!
Save the date for our big Eagle Court of Honor on June 2nd at 2pm! We will be celebrating the accomplishments of FIVE recent Eagle Scouts from our very own Troop 5. More details to come next week.
Yours in Scouting,
Scott Guirlinger
