Scouting for Food- Troop 96 Style! PDF Print E-mail

A Scout is Helpful...and your help is needed so Troop 96 can do its part to help replenish Lake County's food pantries.  During every Monday night in March, we will be collecting non-perishable foods at Troop Meetings.  We'll take what we collect to the Northern Illinois Food Bank, together with all the other troops in the council.

Now, let's spice this up a bit!  We'll track what you collect each week.  The Patrol that brings in the most food per Scout will get our "LASTING THANKS" and something a little more.  At the April Campout, the Adult Patrol will cook a terrific steak dinner for the Scout Patrol that wins the Scouting for Food contest.  Now, doesn't that sound good?  All the food you collect for Scouting for Food will also sound mighty good to the good people of this county who often don't have enough to eat.

Let's do our part, Troop 96!

Troop Elects New Senior Patrol Leader PDF Print E-mail

At our March 8 troop meeting, the Scouts elected their new Senior Patrol Leader, Jason Ln.  Jason was selected from a slate of five candidates.  Each candidate made a speech describing how they would serve as SPL.  In the end, after two rounds of tied votes, Jason emerged as the new SPL.  Congratulations!

Jason and his new PLC will form in the next week.  If you are seeking a troop position, now is the time to talk with Jason and get your appointment.  If you want to be Patrol Leader, now is the time to talk to your patrol.  Patrol Leader elections are Monday, March 15.  

Finally, there will be Troop Leadership Training on March 27 for all Scouts holding Troop Leadership positions.  Mark your calendar and plan to be there.  This training is required to get credit for your position.  Watch the website for details.

Written by Pat Klemens   

As of March 4, fifteen Scouts contributed to the total of $936.82  You showed how you could use your brains and your muscles to "Help other people at all times." 

As promised, I will double your efforts: We'll be sending a check to the American Red Cross.  Today, Troop 96 sent $1936.82 to help the people of Haiti!  Thank you, thank you, thank you.  You made a difference -  even if you never know how your money helps.

By the way, our new Scouts to Troop 96 have taken up the challenge, too!  We'll send in any of their donations on March 22.
