Scout Notes - Monday, December 20, 2010

Scout Officers - We will be having a PLC meeting this week.

This Week’s Meeting – This week is the Christmas Party! Wear your Class A uniforms. Spartan Patrol members are in charge of bringing desserts and the Narwhals are in charge of bringing side dishes. Leaders need to bring drinks, and everyone needs to bring along a “Dirty Santa” gift. This is a family event so everyone is encouraged to come and celebrate the season!

Upcoming Events – In order to begin making plans for the coming six months I would like everyone to take a few minutes to provide some feedback on which events your scout plans on participating. Please copy and paste the following into an email and indicate if your scout plans on participating or not. (This is not an official sign-up and does not mean that you cannot change your mind.)
