The team made both tactical plans for weekly troop meetings through June and campouts from January through May 2024. They started off with a vision for the troop this leadership term:

I plan on having the first day of my Eagle Scout project on Saturday, February 4th. My project is focused on building bat houses to provide safe homes for the bat population at Lake Georgetown (which is conservation, for those who need conservation hours), and on Saturday we will build the houses. The workday will start at 12:00 pm and will likely end around 4 or 5. Food will be provided.

Registration for Winter Camp at Lost Pines opens on September 1. That means we need to figure out which session we want to sign up for as a troop.

First of all, thank you to everyone who donated to my project and signed up to work on the 29th. I still need A LOT of help!

We will be making trail improvements at the Twin Springs Preserve in Georgetown, Texas. It will count as conservation hours. We will be fixing the footboards and adding a railing to a bridge, spreading mulch, building a bench and improving other parts of the trail. These improvements and additions to the preserve will help people enjoy the preserve, which is home to not one, but two endangered species: the Golden Cheeked Warblers and Salado Springs Salamanders.

Many of you know that preparing for summer camp may take you a while whether it is selecting your merit badges,swim test, preparing your medical forms, documentation or fine tuning your packing list. Several of you may remember that Camp Alexander requires a little bit more medical information, signed forms, and of course Medical C signed by a doctor. Let me explain that a Scout Camp in Colorado is a little different than other places in the United States. They are considered a childcare facility under state law and have additional guidelines and regulations that the camp must follow to maintain their license. Much of these requirements are handled behind the scenes, however there are a few that directly impact your preparation to attend camp. The following will be required by every scout and adult attending camp.

Our first class is almost here! This is a reminder to get signed up for the online classroom and webinars before our first class on Wednesday, May 11. All the instructions you need to sign up for both are here:
