Fun Golf Night

Had a great turn-out for the golfing merit badge. 13 boys swinging metal clubs. It was an adventure though fortunately no blood was shed or teeth lost.

To complete the Merit Badge, you need to be able to report to Brother Lees on a famous golfer, and play either two nine-hole rounds or one 18 hole round. I'm going to talk to the golf course and see what kind of a deal we can make. If we're lucky, we can all go together.

I took some pictures. Check them out.

FORE!


Brother Lees has agreed to counsel us on the Golf Merit Badge this week. We’ll meet at the park at 7:00. Be prepared and download the Golf Merit Badge worksheet and bring it with you. Looks like this turned into a multi-group thing so be ready to show the Teachers and Priests how things are done. :)

If you've got golf gear, bring it with you.

Plan on being bribed for wearing your uniform.

Spring Break

According to the calendar, this week is Spring Break. I recall you guys didn't want to interrupt your your vacations with Scouts so you elected not to hold it this week. We'll stick with that plan. Enjoy.

We Have A Plan!

We had a great meeting last night and planned our events for the summer. I’ve updated the calendar to reflect our new plans so feel free to check it out and let me know if you have questions.

I also had those who attended fill out a signup sheet for which merit badges they want to earn at scout camp. If you missed last night, get with me ASAP so I can get you signed up.

Garett was the sole recipient of the uniform bribe last night. Good Job Garrett. Pretty much every time I talk to the Bishop about Scouts he talks about how he really wants to have a “real” Scout troop that wears their uniforms. I’m shooting for that too (hence the bribe that come out of my own hind pocket) but we can’t do it without you. In other words, wear your uniforms. If you don’t have one or can’t afford one, talk to me and we’ll work something out.



Combined activity next week so no Scouts. When we meet again on April 1, we’ll work on the Athletics Merit Badge.
