Emergency Preparedness Theme

Each Troop needs to take on a requirement that can’t be done in the unit alone. These will be discussed at the Round Table
Tuesday April 7th, 2009 Fron Lutheran Church, Starbuck, Mn

We will be working on the Emergency Preparedness Merit Badge and the BSA Emergency Preparedness Award. Some work will be required before or after the Camporee as some requirements need to be done at home or in the Unit meeting place.

Roundtable - January 6th, 7:30 pm, Fron Lutheran, Starbuck

Don’t forget round table the 6th in Starbuck for Lakes . We will be doing on line chartering for those of you that are having trouble or have not done one before. Please bring your rosters, and registration forms for new leaders. If you have everything you will be able to complete the form that night.

Bring your blue and gold and court of honor dates as well as your unit contact for in family FOS. Let’s work on getting this process out of the way early this year so we can focus on supplying the boys with the best program possible.

If you have boys that have not gotten their registration turned in please do so before the end of the year. The Council is very close to having traditional youth growth again this year and every boy counts.

Order of the Arrow Chapter 4 Meeting

The Order of The Arrow (OA) is meeting Tuesday, January 6, 7:00 pm, at Fron Lutheran Church in Starbuck (just before the monthly Roundtable meeting). This is an important meeting where we will kick off the yearly election process in our district. All elections must be done before April 1 (no joke!). This meeting is for all OA members (youth and adults) as well as all Scoutmasters (OA members or not). Topics include basic OA information and the election process. Please bring your troop’s schedule of meetings so that we can find a time to hold elections in your unit.

The Order of The Arrow is Scouting’s Honor Society: http://www.main.oa-bsa.org
