SPL Elections

Troop this Tuesday will be the Senior Patrol Leader election for 2009-2010. To date I have heard from (2) scouts interested in runnung. If you will be a Star scout and 14 years old by September 1st and would like to run please e-mail me so I can put your name on the ballot. On Tuesday you will need to be in your class A+ uniform and present a 2 minute speech to the troop on your qualifications and accomplishments.

Retiring the Flag Ceremony

Tuesday night Troop 8 held their annual Flag Retirement Ceremony. The Event was attended by VFW Post 5095, and our scouts performed admirably.

Retire the Flag

Just a reminder that Tuesday (6/2) is a class A event (full uniforms). We will be retiring the worn flags collected during flags and flowers. Please bring all flags collected to Tuesday's meeting. Also if you have any american flags at home that need to be retired please bring those as well.
