Savage Falls Backpacking Trip
Last weekend was the perfect weather for backpacking. We had a big turn-out – 39 campers! Lots of rain recently made it a good time to check out Savage Falls.
Regular Troop Meeting This Monday
The troop Planning Meeting scheduled for this Monday has been cancelled. We will have our regular troop meeting.
Dr. Beckman will be doing Summer Camp physicals after the announcements – You must have your BSA Health Form with medical history and medications completed and signed by a parent.
Recently elected OA candidates, Ben Barrett, Luke Clement, Michael Gray, Karl Klaus, Justin Siler, and Michael Zietz will meet with Cristian Quiterio after the announcements.
Chip Akin’s Eagle Scout Service Project
Chip will be doing his Eagle Project this Sat., April 16th at the Discovery Center in Murfreesboro. The time is 9:00 AM to 4:00 PM. Volunteers will be cleaning vegetation and trash out of the pond. Discovery Center will provide gloves but they said you can bring your own if you want. Wear clothes and shoes that you don’t mind getting wet and or dirty. Chip’s mom will provide lunch. Chip has a waiver that workers’ parents mustl fill out.
Personal Fitness Merit Badge
This MB class will be led by Jon Siler and Glen Lanier. The first Personal Fitness meeting will be held this Monday, April 18 at 7:30pm. We will use a classroom over in the church building. To enter the class, scouts must have 1) printed a copy of the Personal Fitness merit badge worksheet available at http://usscouts.org/mb/mb010.asp, as well as the Personal Fitness MB Book 2) assembled a notebook binder with the worksheet, 3) completed requirements #’s 3, 4 & 5, and 4) no medical/health conditions that would prevent the scout from participating in this 12 week course.
There will be no exceptions for these requirements. Scouts should be ready for class and be prepared to discuss the assigned requirements. This is an Eagle required MB and one that can be very valuable and interesting if done to the established standards. If the scout has not completed the items above by April 18, he will have to wait until the next Personal Fitness MB course is offered.
The following scouts have signed up: Madden Pack, Mitchell Jacobs, Kyle Ceder, Ty Henderson, Michael Wermert, Justin Siler, and Jeremy Siler. If you have not signed up, assemble the required information , and sign up at the MB meeting. If you will be unable to attend or if you have questions about the requirements, email Mr. Siler at silerjon@hotmail.com.

The next Troop swim test will be on Thursday, April 28th from 7:00 PM – 8:00 PM at Riverdale HS pool.
