TROOP MEETING TONIGHT And, at the meeting is a VERY IMPORTANT DEADLINE --the final opportunity to pay your RECHARTER MEMBER DUES! Remember to bring TWO copies of the health forms which includes copies of your insurance cards. All adults rechartering MUST have a current YPT or they will be not be included in the recharter, so bring a copy of your YPT cert to be sure (individual emails were sent to those with expired YPT). If you have not turned in forms/paid/made arrangements for payment, then you will be DROPPED from the Troop roster, so please pay your dues! Also, BSA dues increase in January, not to mention, you will have to go through the entire adult application process all over again, so thank you for helping us with the great year-end paper chase! Please reach out to Monica Attel with any questions and while you're at it, thank her for all her hard work on this Recharter process for the Troop!

It's time to recharter! As a brief reminder, recharter is a full membership audit of all registered members (youth and adult) for Troop 1910.  We conduct our recharter October-November each year. The Troop has to submit our Recharter documents before the first week of December to the Boy Scouts of America for the 2019 calendar year. As part of this process, each Scout and leader must, in short, re-register for the upcoming year meaning payment of dues and submission of TWO complete BSA Health Forms A&B (with all necessary copies of insurance cards and/or shot records attached thereto). If paid by the deadline, Recharter dues are as follows: Scouts are either $110 or $122 if your son wishes to receive the Boy's Life Magazine, (it’s an additional $12) Assistant Scoutmasters and Committee Members are $35.50 The annual registration fee for youth members of Troop 1910 is reached from four components: National Dues – this fee is paid directly to the Boy Scouts ...

I Want YOU...

Image
We aren't kidding when we say it takes a village and as attrition takes place and people move, we need to expand our volunteer resource base. Please don't think that you can't help... training is provided for any and every position. Investing in your son and his unit can make all the difference in the world between a mediocre and a robust Troop. We need Committee volunteers... specifically a Membership Coordinator who will be back-up to Peter Leath and a Camping Coordinator to be back-up to Mike Hunt. These are critical positions for our Troop’s success, so please reach out to our Committee Chair, Bob Morgan to let him know you're ready to help us out!
