We are looking for volunteers to help with Emergency Preparedness and Personal Fitness badges next fall 2024. We have experienced folks who will be leading the badges this year, whom you would support and learn at their side. The hope is that you could lead it next time with support from others.
Hi T5 Scouts in Outdoorsman Merit Badge bundle @ Camp Kahtadin & your Families,
Please join this optional prep-call with an adult if you’re available, next Monday 5/13, 7-8pm! Outdoorsman has Pre-requisites which we will review/complete here, & some items that Scouts may need to procure prior to camp.
It also has some Requirements which won’t be completed at Camp. We will review these as well, & you may be able to complete some before we go to Maine. After camp, I can help Scouts to track completions during the next year (still your responsibility!), to help Scouts can achieve all these great Merit Badges!
Apologies to families for the short notice on this. I’ll try to send Zoom calendar invite out from email address below…questions welcomed!
All T5 and T50 parents and scouts, both past and present, are invited to join us for our 2024 Eagle Court of Honor on Sunday, April 28 from 2-4pm in the Sanctuary of First United Methodist Church, 1201 Lavaca St. Come help us celebrate our 11 newest Eagle Scouts--five from Troop 5 and six from Troop 50-- for reaching the highest BSA Rank of Eagle. Reception to follow downstairs at FUMC in Wesley Hall.
Please signup for our next T5 campout, for May 4-5! This will be a mini-high adventure experience, canoeing 5-6 miles down the lower Colorado River, to primitive camp on a wilderness island of Texas public land. You will learn how to pack overnight gear for a canoe float, practice paddling, earn conservation service hours, swim and fish, enjoy and learn backpacking MRE meals, and have a bonfire. Be sure to have an up to date swim test in time for the campout, and there will be one more troop sponsored swim test at Deep Eddy this Saturday. Also, we need a few parent volunteers to signup to help tow canoes and co-honcho some logistics; if you can help, please email james@realinternational.com
