Currently I have 18 scouts and 7 leaders signed up for The West Point camp out April 29 - May 1. I will need the permission forms filled out by both the scouts and the adults and returned to me as soon as possible. We have to pay a $20 non-refundable deposit before March 20th and the forms are my way of knowing who is really going. The Troop will advance this deposit so no money is due until mid-April. the cost will be approx. $60 per individual which will cover the $20 deposit, food, and gas. Remember you can use the money you have earned selling popcorn or parking cares to pay for these types of activities. Just ask Mrs. Latimer to take payment from you scout account. Any question please feel free to contact me or Mr. Arnold.

Improving Rank Advancement
Over the past several months we have been initiating new policies and procedures to improve the administration of the troop. Monitoring the younger boys as they work their way through to 1st class has been a weak spot. Last night I announced to the troop that Asst. Scoutmaster Stan Michnowicz will monitor the the boys as they progress through the ranks. The plan is for Mr. Michnowicz to help keep the boys on track by showing them learn how to get their rank requirements signed off by ASM's as they complete them and to suggest to the Senior Patrol leader activities that would satisfy certain requirements. The goal is to guide the younger scouts to 1st class by which point they should be old enough and experienced enough to self monitor.
I would like to thank Stan for taking on this task.
