Good morning Scouts!!

Remember that we are doing a on site Popcorn Sale at The Big Store today from 10:00am to 2:00pm, and again tomorrow from 10:00am to 4:00pm.

See you there!!

Funny skit...

Was looking at YouTube for Scout skits and found this....



Boy Scout Skit At Camp Little Lemhi

It reminded me of some of the skits our guys saw at Fire Mountain this summer...

Let's try this again...

I'll see you all at the meeting this evening... Looks like we will have to move the popcorn sale to this weekend. (Although a sale on the weekend of Homecoming is not necessarily a bad idea!!)

Who has sold popcorn already? Who has sold the most so far?

And just how far back can we find an idea of a computer, anyway?

Yours in Scouting,

(edit) To see what I described in our meeting as the oldest computer, visit these pages.

Last nights meeting....

Things went well at last nights meeting. We handed out Popcorn Sales guides/tracking paperwork, and set up an on site sale for this Saturday and Sunday at the Big Store from 10:00am to 6:00pm. Depending on how the sales go thiss weekend, we may also try on Thursday and Friday of next week from 3:00 to 6:00 pm.   In the meantime, families and friends should be aware that this is our annual  fundraiser for the troop, and help point our Scouts in the direction of growing sales!! (Thanks for your help!)

In the box.net sidebar on this page (it has the word Docs at its top,) Scouts will be able to download the Computer Merit Badge worksheet. Listed on the last page are some great online resources to aid research on this merit badge. I'd like it if our boys could help each other obtain a copy of this worksheet, and to read it over (if not jump into the research!) before our meeting next week.

Hope to see you all at the Popcorn Sale this weekend!
