Members present: Peggy, Janet, Jeff, Sue, Bonnie, Neil, Carolyn. Discussed and voted on purchase of wagon with pneumatic wheels for troop. Approval was given for Jeff to purchase a fire pit with lid up to $150. Still working on purchase of fire pit- concerns with air flow, leg strength and ash screens. Sue still working on reconciling summer camp payments. 2 scouts applied for camp scholarships through council without committee approval/knowledge. Both scholarships were not funded by council therefore troop must pay the cost for these boys. Policy needs to be in place for troop with regards to scholarships so this does not happen again. Brennon F. presented his Eagle Project and it was approved by the committee. No committee help is needed for scouting for food according to troop leadership. Also, troop leadership does not wish to do a fall COH instead would rather wait until March.
Advancement report: 6 boys attended BOR in September. There are 3 boys on the list for October. Peggy will no longer continue as advancement chair as on January 2011. Behavior of scouts during canoe trip was discussed.
Committee will need to find a replacement committee chair as current chair has stepped down.
