Message E-mailed to all Troop on 9/2/09

Roger has asked me to send this reminder out to everyone in Troop 512:

Reminder, the troop has their weekly meeting at 6:30 pm tomorrow night. Being that Roger is Scoutmaster and there is a renewed attempt at holding separate Boy Scout Roundtables, he also needs to attend that meeting which takes place virtually at the same time in Baytown! Yikes!

Here's his plan: He still plans on attending Roundtable, but will first stop by the troop meeting to discuss a special topic that must be addressed this week. The church pastor, Pastor Cortinas, has scheduled a meeting early next week to review which units are meeting at the church and when, plus their needs and the church's expectations. At this time, there is another pack and troop aside from the (3) 512 units that are meeting there. As many of you know, the topic of changing meeting nights from Thursday night to another night of the week has arisen a couple of times this last year. Those times resulted in no change due to many factors. In the last couple of months, a few members have asked to review the topic again since it seems that the timing is good for various opportunities. Please be prepared to discuss this specific topic at the beginning of tomorrow night's meeting.

Also, on a separate note, the Boy Scouts voiced their concerns to Isaac that they are not "in the loop" on weekly messages and advance information. If possible, please have them read the e-mail bulletins and remind them to check the blog on a weekly basis.

Thank you & Have a blessed day,
Veronica Tijerina

A SCOUT IS REVERENT - RELIGIOUS KNOT

Religious Emblems for Boy Scouts,Varsity Scouts,Venturers, and Explorers

(For information go to: http://www.usscouts.org/, Advancement, Religious)

"A Scout is Reverent." All Scouts show this by being faithful in their duty to God. Some go further and give special service. This can qualify them for a religious emblem. Such an emblem is not a Scouting award. It is conferred on a Scout by his religious leader. Each faith has its own requirements for earning its emblem. Listed on the web link are the BOY SCOUT and VARSITY SCOUT emblems and where to find out about them. Before writing or visiting your local council service center, check with your religious leader.
(Unless indicated otherwise, awards listed may be earned by both Boy Scouts and Varsity Scouts.) Older Boy Scouts of Varsity Scout age (over 14), Venturers, and Sea Scouts (and in some cases, Explorers) are eligible for any awards that Varsity Scouts may earn.

PRAY FOR OUR FAMILIES

Sometimes we all go through hardships and losses. Please pray for our families and friends.
