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

Troop elections will be held at the September 16 Troop Meeting. 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.  Scouts are encouraged to run for more than one position to increase their chances of being elected into a leadership position. Election information may be found HERE .  Election Forms are found on Page 3 of that document and are due to ASM Stephen Cook by the September 9 Troop Meeting.

ALL PARENTS, LEADERS AND COMMITTEE MEMBERS that attend Troop meetings – please make sure you sign in to the adult roster near the front door every single time you attend a Troop function. We need this to ensure Safe Sanctuary compliance. To become Safe Sanctuary certified, you must have six months of continuous activity with the Troop (i.e. attend at least 1 meeting a month, then maintain this activity level in the future). The roster allows us the ability to show the church that we are complying with their Safe Sanctuary policy, which again, is for the benefit and safety of our Scouts and that is our highest priority always ! We would like to encourage all parents to become Safe Sanctuary certified right HERE *Please note there is a $15 fee for the background check. Safe Sanctuary certification greatly benefits our Unit on Campouts, at Troop meetings and events, as well as Merit Badge Counseling, as required by our Charter (Keller UMC). If you have any questions, plea...

Reminder:  Troop Meeting tonight in the FLC (Family Life Center) at 7pm

For those Scouts in need of conservation service hours, the Mustang District is hosting a conservation project at Sid Richardson Scout Ranch August 31.  DOWNLOAD THE FLYER HERE . This is not a Troop event, so the parent would need to attend with their Scout. Contact for the event: Denice Boettcher - 817-805-4266. Additionally, the Troop will have upcoming conservation service projects on campouts and at the church in the near future, so don’t feel pressured to attend this event for the conservation hours. It’s just another opportunity for those interested.

Saturday, August 3rd is our Annual Planning Conference (APC) from 6pm – midnight at the Scout House. All Scouts are invited to attend and voice your desires for next year’s (2020’s) Scouting year – this is where we plan campouts for the year, the Summer Camp location, etc. More info coming soon as to food, drinks, snacks and what you need to bring.

If you are on our Facebook page (which is only for Troop members), you know that our Philmonters are back because they are sharing all of their photos and videos, which are awesome! They all did great, and we are all so proud of you for your successful High Adventure. Special thanks to our Crew Leaders: Rick Ward (Scoutmaster for Philmont), John Kuehn (ASM), and Nick Nazarko (ASM), as well as Peter Leath, Tiffani Boyd, Steve Sprowls, Matt Wilkins, Bill Nesbitt, Greg Buell, and Meredith Rentz, that also hiked and helped out our 20 Scouts on this awesome trip.

Troop Meeting tonight at 7pm. Be sure to bring your camping forms for the July camp out and money for meals!  See you soon.
