Scouts & Parents – August, for now is looking pretty busy.
This coming Saturday, August 1st, we will be having our Summer Court of Honor. It will be
at 9:00 am, meeting at the Southgate Church of Christ. They have a
very large pavilion behind the main church building. You will need to
bring your own chairs. Everyone will need to be wearing a face mask. We
will sit in family groups, with the appropriate spacing between families.
We were scheduled to go the Camp Fawcett for the “Encampment” the weekend
of Aug 7 – 9. the Encampment has been canceled. Our original camp
schedule had us going to Camp Fawcett
Aug 14 – 16. I would like to go back to the original schedule (Aug
14 –16), just to give us an extra week to plan and prepare! If anyone gets
dropped and can’t make the 14-16 that really wants to, please let me know
immediately. I will send a signup genius out Tuesday.
Also in August, the Council
Claybird Shoot is Saturday, August 22nd. As of now, it is still
scheduled to take place. We will new 3 or 4 volunteers for Friday night to
help set up, and as many as possible to be there on Saturday. This is a
big fundraiser. Shooters like to see scouts in uniform! If you are
available, please try and reserve the weekend. I will send a signup genius
out next week also.
The following schedule is not confirmed, but our options are tremendously
limited!
September camp – Camp Sol Meyer. Sept 18-20.
October camp – backpack trip on a local ranch (our Pedernalles Falls
reservations were canceled by the state). Oct 23-25.
November – Webloes Woods, Baden Powell. Nov 13-14
Dec 4, Friday – Scout Lock in at First Baptist
Winter Camp, Dec 26 – 29.
Jan 15- 18; Red River Ski Trip.
REMEMBER - Absolutely everything is subject to change!!
Be flexible, thank you. J Helton
