Hi Troop 384,

It’s time to turn in your updated Annual Health and Medical Record forms Parts A and B. These forms are required for EVERYONE: leaders, adults or scouts who attend troop events. Scouts and leaders going to summer camp, NYLT, Foxfire, Canoe Trip, Whitewater Rafting, or Backpacking will need a Part C, pre-participation physical, signed by your doctor within the last 12 months of the camp occurring. These forms are collected every year and Part C expires one year from the date of the last exam. These can be challenging appointments to secure, so use this as your reminder to make an appointment with your doctor to get these necessary forms signed off and turned in. Please turn in these forms ASAP, I would hate for anyone to miss an activity due to lacking a medical form.

Bring your donation to the Chase Walker Love Bomb to the Troop Meeting on January 27th. Here is a list of his favorites: 

Fruit snacks, Fruit roll ups, Purple dorritos, Canes, In n out, Chick-Fil-A, Kwix (game), Racko (game), Dice , Top Gun, NCIS, Hunger Games, Team- Lions, Sprite, Dr. Pepper

Happy New Year! 

BSA has announced a large update to many merit badges. The changes can be found here. The PLC decided to not discard old MB books. Rather indicate in the old books that the requirements have been updated and to check the BSA website for the correct requirements. Many scouts utilize the US Scouting Project worksheets to log answers, take notes, etc. Those worksheets DO NOT appear to be updated yet. I would assume they will be updated soon. Until then, be sure to check the BSA page for the correct requirements.
