Rank Advancements and Awards
Congratulations
to Sam D. and Adam H. for achieving the rank of Scout! Jacob E. and Tyson T. received their
Totin’ Chip and Firem’n Chit, which they earned on the July camp out. Well done, boys!
Troop Meetings by Patrol
In accordance with the current state guidelines to limit
group gatherings to 10 people or less, the Scouts will stay in their patrols and
remain separated from the other patrols for the entire duration of the Monday
Troop meetings. We will NOT open or
close the meeting as a troop. Each
patrol will conduct their own opening and closing. Patrol Leaders will lead the meeting for
their respective patrols. The SPL and
adult leaders will rotate through the patrols, as necessary.
Please review this new procedure with your Scout before the
next meeting, so that they may be prepared for the different format. We will keep this meeting format until the
state changes its guidelines.
Virtual Zoom Parent/Committee Meeting (7/28)
The previously scheduled Parent/Committee Meeting has been
rescheduled as a virtual Zoom meeting.
The meeting will be held on Tuesday, July 28th, from 7:00 –
8:00 PM. We will be discussing the dates
for future camp outs and outings. Please

Troop Swim Test (8/2)
We will conduct the BSA swim test for all youth and adults
who did not complete the swim test on the July camp out. Those wishing to
participate in any water activities over the course of the next 12 months will
first need to have completed the BSA swim test. This includes any siblings or
parents who anticipate joining us in any of those activities.
In light of current state guidelines, we will be limiting
the group sizes to 10 or less. If you
have already taken the test, please DO
NOT sign up.
- DATE: Sunday, August 2nd
- TIME: 3:00 - 6:00 PM
- LOCATION: McQuillen's House, 2807 Avenue of the Woods, Louisville, KY 40241
