Troop Meeting this Thursday, March 22 at 7:00pm - Sacred Heart Parish Hall

Hello Troop 20!

We are planning to have our regular Troop Meeting this Thursday, March 22nd, at 7:00pm at the Sacred Heart Parish Hall.  If, due to the weather, we have to alter these plans, an announcement will go out on the Troop Blog.  Please make sure you check the blog before coming to the meeting to avoid an unnecessary trip.

Again, we are still planning to hold the Troop Meeting this Thursday but watch the blog for any changes to those plans.

Announcements:
 
1) Any Scouts working on the Personal Management Merit Badge should check in with Mrs. Swindle.  Please remember that you are expected to be working on this outside of the Troop meetings.

2) Mr. Devine will need to meet with the West Point Light-fighters for about 15 minutes.  An announcement will be made at the start of the meeting to firm up time.

3) For any Scouts working on the Backpacking Merit Badge, our next 3-day backpacking trek will be coming up April 20-22.  Please see the attached document from Mr. Devine for important information about that trip.

4) Preston Brown - Eagle Court of Honor
On Saturday, March 31st at 5:30pm, there will be an Eagle Scout Court of Honor held for Preston Brown at the Middleborough Town Hall.  We are asking all Troop 20 Scouts and their families to please plan on joining us for this very special event.  Scouts are expected to be in full Class A uniforms and are asked to arrive at the town hall between 4:30 - 5:00 to help setup.  The Brown family has arranged for food and refreshments immediately following the close of the ceremony.  We look forward to seeing everyone on the 31st to recognize Preston's achievement!

NOTE:  On Thursday, March 29, there will be a full dress rehearsal at the town hall, to prepare for the Court of Honor.  All Scouts should arrive in full Class A's for inspection.  A reminder will be sent next week as well.

That's all for now.  We hope to see everyone Thursday evening!
