IV October Wrap-Up
A. Troop Meetings - David is doing a good job of
holding the PLC accountable for service project plans. David is also meeting
with the PLC for 2 minutes before each meeting for any last minute updates and
announcements.
B. Merit Badge
Work – Good participation but the groups are too large to had good quality
session. Scouts need to be reminded that in order to take a merit badge class
they must bring their merit badge book with them.
Ř First Aid – Limited progress was made because merit
badge councilor did not know that it was a month long commitment. Other Scout
leaders tried to help out in merit badge councilor’s absence.
Ř Personal Fitness – Too many scouts to make significant
progress.
Ř Space Exploration – Too many scouts to make
significant progress. Need to coordinate with outside sources to plan rocket
launch date.
Ř Finger Printing – No merit badge councilor was
available
C
Bike Ride – Very low scout attendance and two adults probably due to multiple
changes of location and change from a campout to a day trip.
