First Aid Merit Badge
One of the Eagles Scouts of Troop 161, Tom Ackley will be hosting a First Aid Merit Badge clinic on March 3rd from 9 AM to 6 PM with his Troop. It will be held at the Tichigan Fire Dept in Waterford, lunch and drinks will be provided. The cost is free to scouts. If you are going to take the class, you should read the First Aid Merit Badge book and also do the requirement about creating your own first aid kit. You need to bring it on this day as you will be discussing what you included in your kit. Question or you want to sign up, you can contact Mr. Tom Ackley at 414-731-5592
Annual Dinner
Don’t forget to sign up for the annual dinner at https://mrf161.wixsite.com/troop161. We need a count of how much to plan on, so a Scout is helpful, be sure to click on the link, if you can not attend, there is an option to let us know that as well.
Changing of the Guard
As announced at the last Court of Honor, I will be stepping down in June as Scoutmaster, happy to announce that Mr. Dave Lyon will be taking over as Scoutmaster at that time. Mr. Lyon and I will be working on the transition over the next few months as we prepare to pass on the duties. Mr. Troy Salchow will be taking over as Committee Chairman. Along with that we are working on a couple the other positions and will announce those in the coming weeks. There are still some to be filled, so if you can help, we could use your help.
What do you use?
We have A LOT of forms of communications running the Troop, between the BSB, FaceBook and other things it might be a good time to evaluate what is important. With a reduction of manpower, we want to focus our energy in the correct direction. Please help us by filling out this Communications survey.
That’s all this week,
See you at the EAA on Monday
Mr. F
Don't forget !!!
