No Meeting this Thursday

 Please note, we will NOT meet next week Thursday, April 5th as this is a holy day for many of the scouts in the troop as we prepare for Easter.
Knowing that a scout is  reverent, we will take the night off and meet next week.
If anyone has questions about anything let me know, spring camporee is just around the corner. I am sure the SPL will be in touch, sharing valuable information as we prepare to go to Little Sioux Scout Ranch for Spring Camporee.
Scouts you have been doing a great job working on merit badges, don't forget to work on them as your merit badge counselor has discussed with you.
A few merit badges you have been focused on Citizenship in the Community, Nation, Communication, Wilderness Survival, Emergency Prep and Personal Fitness.
Remember you control your advancement.
