This Tuesday’s Meeting

Troop 540,

This Tuesday, we will have our Green Bar meeting at 7:00pm. The general meeting starts at 7:30pm. We will finish up any scouts that need their Scoutmaster Conference and Board of Review. Please come dressed in your full class “A” uniform, if you need this.

We will be handing out food assignments for the Camporee and practicing setting up tents.

Just a reminder, that half the deposit for Gettysburg is due THIS Tuesday (5/12/15). We will not accept any payments after this date. Also, there will be no refunds as this money will be sent to the tour company. Make checks payable to, “Troop 540.” Again, half the deposit will be $46.50 for adults and $43.40 for children.

Merit badge counselors, if you haven’t already started, please contact your scouts and begin the merit badges.

Final note, please get any outstanding tents back on Tuesday night as there are still some that are outstanding.

Thanks and I’ll see you all on Tuesday night.

Sincerely,

Jon Hess – Scoutmaster, Troop 540
