Our troop's second eagle scout project was completed on Sunday! Colleen had a great turnout of support to build and paint 4 bat boxes that will be installed at the MVCTC for the natural resource management lab.

A special thanks to JJ's Boutique for donating the money required for this projects completion.

The scout motto is "be prepared."

For what? You might ask.. Well, pretty much anything. Scouts learn a lot of important foundation skills in which they can apply to many situations.

But I think the most important is years of experience that enables them to see the problem from a different perspective. You don't just pick up a book and learn that, you have to experience it. That's one of the things enables scouts to be prepared.

Don't expect things to fall into your lap. You must do the work required but don't let time make you think less of your progress.

Some great things cannot be done over night. Be patient and remain focused on that compass to get where you need to be.

Thank you Jenni Phillips for getting the troop involved in painting a new mural on the side of Studio 201!

We got to paint the first coat of the great state of OHIO with the expertise of Atalie. It's not all done yet but check back soon for the finished product!

Great job to the scouts for cleaning up our charter organization, Amvets Post 1789. This year has been a great growing season and the weeds got carried away pretty quickly. A few hours of hard work in the heat today was good for character building 😉

No experience needed to become a scout! Just a willingness to learn and be a great citizen of our wonderful nation 🇺🇸

Kids learn from experience, not from being told how to do it. That's why scouting is a safe place to fail. Learn what works by doing it and build upon that experience. Our program does involve a lot of outdoor activities but it's not all just camping in tents.

Come on out for recruitment night next Monday August 31st. Drop by the Golden Gate Park from 5-8, open house style. All 3 units will be present for boys and girls in kindergarten up to 17 years of age to learn about our program.

The girls troop would specifically like to target girls in 5th through 7th grade. We've got some very talented older scouts who would love to pass on their knowledge. Successful completion of our program will genuinely help prepare you for really about anything that your future holds. See you Monday!

Had a great weekend camping at Hueston Woods over the weekend with Pack 47 and Troop 47. Spent some time at the beach swimming and canoeing. Enjoyed some great food and time with friends in nature.
