NEW TROOP GAMING LOCK-IN

KERR BUILDING | JULY 25-26TH

Back by popular demand, the Troop Summer lock-in! Scouts are encouraged to bring video game consoles (there are six TVs to which we can connect... if you have a small, portable TV, feel free to bring it), card/board games, anything they want to do for fun for the night!

Scouts can get dropped off starting at 6:00 pm on Friday night. We'll have pizza, snacks and drinks for that night and a grab and go breakfast on the next morning. Scouts will need to be picked up by 9:00 am on Saturday, July 26th. The cost to attend is $5 for the food and drinks. Sign up to attend below! PLEASE RSVP BY TUESDAY, JULY 22ND SO WE KNOW HOW MUCH FOOD TO ORDER!

REMINDER '25-'26 CALENDAR

A few weeks ago, Troop 65, 1265 and Pack 65 met to set and coordinate our calendars for September 2025 through August 2026. I will be importing these into Scoutbook as well as the Troop Google Calendar (see link above) by July 7th. Most will not have a set location for our camping trips, but will have the dates for your planning purposes.

And, just as a reminder, here are the remaining dates for this summer:

JULY 21: SUMMER MEETING
JULY 25: LOCK-IN AT PPC
AUG 4: SUMMER MEETING
AUG 8-10: WHITEWATER RAFTING
AUG 18: SUMMER MEETING
AUG 25: REGULAR MEETING

Finally, please remember that advancement is still possible over the summer. You can still contact Mr. Hall for Scoutmaster Conferences and Mrs. Adams for Boards of Review. Summer is a great time to rank up!

Need a Merit Badge Counselor?

Counselor lists are now available!

Scoutbook only gives registered leaders access to the Merit Badge Counselor lists. However, in an effort to make it easier for everyone, we created this website listing all merit badges with Eagle required highlighted in blue

Don't forget the proper procedure:

Choose which merit badge you would like to earn
Contact the counselor
Speak to Mr. Hall about pursuing this merit badge and obtain a blue card!
