Photos from the last court of honor

April 28, 2009

Hey all,
Jay had mentioned that he had not seen the photos I took from our last court of honor. I wanted to resend them and perhaps Gary can attach this link to our website…or download a few photos?

Anyway, here’s the link.

Thanks,

Mike Cvetanovich


Committee Meeting Agenda for April 27

April 24, 2009

A. Call to Order

B. Welcome and Introductions

C. Approval of Previous Committee Meeting Minutes (3/09) Members Present: Janet, Sue, Jeff, Gary, Peggy, Neil 1. Committee meeting minutes from January were approved. 2. a. There was discussion about re portioning fundraiser money into scout accounts. Currently the troop does not make enough money to cover expenses. 100% of popcorn and tree sales go into scout account with the troop getting no money. The Applebee fundraiser does not make enough money for the troop. It was decided that the scout accounts will accrue money for up to 1 year (August to August). Whatever money remains in a scout account will revert back to the troop after August 30 of each year. Scouts may use their accounts to fund summer camp, high adventure trips, troop outings and registration. Up to 25% may be used toward an Eagle project. 100% of popcorn and Christmas tree sales go to the Scout. For the Applebee fundraiser, Scouts will earn $1 for every ticket sold and the troop earns $4. Scouts attending high adventure trips may accrue money in their accounts longer than 1 year provided they obtain permission from the troop committee. b. The calendar has been completed through July. c. Stencils for trailer are still being worked on. d. Budget Discussion: The following budget was adopted for 2009: Awards/Insignia $600 (possibility of many scouts attaining Eagle this year), Equipment $75, Meeting Expense $150, Trailer Fees $150, Miscellaneous $100.
