Drivers are needed for this weekends Advancement Campout.  Please email Liz Benbrook ASAP at lizbiz42@yahoo.com if you can drive.  I need to know if you can drive Friday, Sunday or both - and your car information if I do not already have it (# of people you can take with gear and # without their gear.  Car make, model, yr and car insurance information).  THANK YOU!!! 

As we head into the last month of our scouting year (and with one final campout ahead of us) it is important that your records are up to date.  Some of you told us this past weekend that things were signed off on your green cards that are not showing up in the system.  Before next Wednesdays meeting go into your personal profile and click on "Advancement" and double check that what is recorded matches what you think you have done.  Print it out and write down your perceived corrections.  If there is an error - verified by either your handbook or green card - then we can get it squared away.  This is YOUR responsibility to check on a regular basis as this is YOUR advancement!

Welcome Back Scouts and parents.  Troop 44 is looking forward to an exciting year!!  Our calendar for the year has been posted.  All events are subject to be changed.  We will not be sending out e-mails this year unless there are last minute changes so IT IS THE RESPONSIBILITY OF PARENTS AND SCOUTS TO CONTINUALLY CHECK THE WEBSITE FOR CALENDAR CHANGES AND ANNOUNCEMENTS.  Revisions to the Troop handbook have taken longer than anticipated so we apologize...  Please look for it in your inboxes by the 18th.  Please be sure to bring the required forms to the next meeting!

Check the Community Service Opportunities page for chances to "Do a Good turn" that are added periodically!

You can now download the troop calendar to your Outlook, Google, Apple products, Smartphones etc.  Click on Calendar Sync in the user profile box at the left and follow the instructions.  Soar has asked that users please not update more frequently than once a day and really for our troop once a week should suffice. 

As Scoutmaster of Troop 44 I have the privilege to see young boys mature into young men. The scouting program through efforts of many adult leaders have given the scouts in Troop 44 opportunities for lifelong experiences and role models in the scouting tradition.
