Hello Troop 648 Scouts and Families,
David Yu (ASPL – Meetings) and Mrs. Hoberg have 3 announcements regarding meeting planning.
- All November meetings are covered and will be about Engineering. The November 14 meeting will be a rank advancement requirement meeting, so be sure to come prepared to get some requirements signed off.
- We still need 2 scouts to lead meetings in December on the theme of Safety. And be thinking ahead for January on Winter Camping.
- In an effort to continue providing informative and engaging weekly meetings for our troop, we would like to solicit your input as we compile a list of ideas for thematic meeting activities. Senior scouts, this request is especially directed towards you! What have been your most memorable/interesting/fun meeting activities? Parents, do you have any adult connections, within the themes below, to whom you could introduce a scout?
The idea is to be able to provide newer scouts with a list of ideas to assist them in their meeting planning. If you can’t think of a specific activity, it would even be helpful to list “sub-topic†suggestions for the broader themes (eg. Safety – Fire safety, Internet safety, etc.). Remember to consider “field trip†meeting ideas.
Please email (LMHoberg@cox.net) or text (602-359-4611) Mrs. Hoberg (Jacob’s mom) with your ideas. You may also jot down your ideas on paper and give them to her at a meeting.
Themes for the upcoming year include:
- Safety
- Winter Camping
- Leadership
- Boating/Canoeing
- High Adventure
- Physical Fitness
- Aquatics
- Communications
- Backpacking
- Fishing
Thank you!
Scoutmaster T648
