Troop,
We will not be having a meeting tomorrow so everyone can enjoy the week of the 4th of July with their families. Please remember to sign up for flags on the 4th if you are available. Scouts, also remember to be thinking of what merit badge you would like to do as a troop. I will need some time to put in the paperwork if I am not already a merit badge counselor for the one you choose. Next week we will be helping the Philmont Crew get any last minute things taken care of. If they do not need our help we may try to schedule a swim test to get everyone qualified for future canoeing and white water rafting.
**Please bring any Buffalo Bill summer camp awards and patches to the 8 Jul meeting. Also, make sure you are working hard on your merit badges and any rank advancement – the Court of Honor will be here before you know it.
**Good news: New tents and neckerchiefs have been ordered/purchased
