As you all know, our scout fundraising project involves delivering flags to people in our neighborhoods. We are in the process of revamping the program, and as part of that we need to have all of the flags delivered to Brother Heaton's home by the end of this week so that we can assess our inventory. There will be some things that we need to do in the coming weeks to kick this off, and those things will be addressed at both church and mutual as we have more information. Our next flag day is Veteran's Day, November 11th, so be prepared to deliver on that day. You will notice that there is a new label on the sidebar of this blog which details the dates that we will be delivering flags (there will be a total of six days--I will post them all when I have the info). I will also post the dates on the calendar at the bottom of the blog as well.
Scouts this week will be focused on preparing for our camp out this weekend. Please come prepared to listen because we will be discussing important information regarding how to make hiking trips enjoyable. Assignments will also be handed out at scouts for small events that will be taking place on this camp out.
The purpose of this blog is to provide the young men of Boy Scout Troop 819, and their parents or guardians, with a simple way of obtaining information relating to the comings and goings of our troop.
"Scouting brings out the best in each of us. Live what you've learned and will continue to learn. Help others to hike the trails, to keep steadfast in the paths of truth, of honor, of duty, that all of you can soar together on eagles' wings. You are part of a mighty army of youth, even a royal army, and every organization, to be successful, has an honored tradition to uphold. May you uphold Scouting's tradition, for it can be as a lighthouse beacon in the world of stormy seas, it can be a motivation to prepare for your role in life, it can be a yardstick against which you measure your accomplishments." ~President Thomas S. Monson--2010
