Court of Honor Changes
Please note that due to many conflicting holiday commitments of our Scouts to other activities, many could not attend the End of Year Court of Honor. As this event is all about them and their achievements, the adult leaders voted this last Monday to change the date and location to allow more of the Scouts to attend. Please note the new date and time below. This will be on a Monday night and will be our last meeting of the year.

End of Year News
Monday November 16
Ms Elaine will be present to review progress and update achievements for the scouts. We will planning Yule Log activities. We are initiating send home notices to encourage Scouts to discuss upcoming events with parents. The Scouts often seem unable to commit to upcoming events because they have not reviewed these activities with their parents. Life is busy and often the Scouts may have other obligations with school or sports or other activities. By giving ample notice, we hope to allow the scout to plan to attend more of our outdoor activities. Even if it means coming late or leaving early. We hope the scout understands that the majority of fun and knowledge of the scouting program is obtained in the outdoor program.

Ocoee River Rafting
The last post did not include the dates of the rafting trip which is September 12-13. That means that Mondays meeting August 31 is the last meeting before the trip as the following Monday is Labor Day. Please come prepared with Check and Release form if planning to attend. If other family members want to raft, there is a bunkhouse on sight that can be rented as well as local cabins. They would be responsible for their own reservations and housing and food.
Also for parental information, all forth coming events for the calendar year are posted on the White Board usually placed on the fireplace hearth in the Scout Hut. This can be a useful resource for Scouts who may not pay attention during weekly circle ups or may have missed meetings due to other obligations.
