DO NOT USE : Scouts BSA Troop 1910, Keller, TX

2018 Camp Card Shown Front and Back Each year (generally after the March Roundtable), Troop 1910 begins allowing Scouts' parents to check out Camp Cards at Troop meetings for those Scouts desiring to participate in this optional fundraiser. Camp Cards are coupon cards made available through Longhorn Council that are sold for $10 each. Of that, $5 goes to your son's Scout Account. Our Committee reserves time slots at various storefronts to give Scouts the opportunity to participate in what is called a "Show-N-Sell". This provides easy sales for motivated Scouts.  At a typical Show-N-Sell, a Scout can sell about 20 cards, which means he’s making $100 in two hours to help fund his Scout adventures!  That’s hard to beat my friends. Collect the money at point of sale and turn in all money and/or unsold cards to the Camp Card Coordinator by the end of April. The Troop must pay Longhorn Council $5 per card OR return unsold cards by the May Roundtable. Our Troop

Lots of opportunities are coming up for those seeking to become fully trained Assistant Scoutmasters and activity leaders within the troop.  For all training opportunities, please see the Adult Leadership & Training page on our website.  That can be found HERE .

There will be a meeting for parents of new Scouts tonight in Room 204. During this meeting, you will learn how Troop 1910 works. You'll discover how rank advancements are achieved, how merit badges are earned, how patrols are organized, and more. Even if your Scout is not new to the troop, but you've been wondering what your Scout is doing (or should be doing) on Monday nights and at campouts, you are welcome to attend the meeting.

Troop elections will be held tonight. It is very important that every Scout attend. Your elections allow you to choose your troop leaders for the next six months. Plus, we must have a quorum to conduct elections, so your attendance is critical. As a reminder, all Scouts running for election should be prepared to give a one-to-two minute speech detailing why troop members should vote for you.

If your Scout sold flowers -- they are here! Please make plans to pick up your order between 3:30 and 5:30 in the parking lot behind KUMC. If you are not able to pick them up until after 5:30, please contact Mrs. Hillebrand at 817-727-7930 and let her know.

To All Adult Volunteers, Unit Leaders, and BSA Staff – THANK YOU – for helping youth experience the grand Adventure that is Scouting!

Natural Inquirer is an amazing free science education journal written for students in middle through high school. It was created so that scientists could share their research with students. Much of their research aligns with many of the BSA's merit badges! Each article follows the same format as a scientific journal article by including an Introduction, Methods, Findings, and Discussion section. Additionally, each article has a Meet the Scientist section, Thinking About Science section, Thinking About the Environment section, and a FACTivity. The FACTivity is a hands-on activity that reinforces a concept from the article. All articles are correlated to National Education Standards. Click the image above to take you to the most recent edition of the Natural Inquirer .   Personally, I love the idea of how it can give kids a true insight into real word application for research as well as the potential fields of education directed toward careers in the industry. It gives spe
