Welcome back. We have a great year planned ahead. Your annual dues will be collected. Bring your parents to the CSUMC this Thursday September 13 @ 7:30 pm. We will recognize the Scouts who earned merit badges from Summer Camp, and those who earned a new Rank since our last award ceremony.
Return any Troop equipment (tents, merit badge books, etc.) so we can prepare for the Traveling Camporee in Williamsburg.

Please bring your checkbook to pay your annual dues.
French Toast Tickets will be distributed at a later meeting.
While the cost of everything is going up, we decided to hold the registration fee at $100 – the same as last year. When you look at the great programs our Troop provides for a year of activities, you will see the value of our program for your young adult.
