Rechartering season has come early for the Colonial District - we need to finalize rechartering by November. Your immediate action is to confirm that you will be continuing with Troop 301, via this form. (we hope the answer for everyone is yes!)

Please bring permission slip, volunteer form, and $20 payment to November 18 meeting. 

Adult volunteers - you must complete a background check form (attached) to be included in recharter. Please complete and return to Mr. Scheeler. If you are a merit badge counselor, you must turn in a form to the District - see the details below:

My name is Ian Sterne, I am the Emergency Preparedness Manager for
Volunteer Alexandria. I run the Snow Buddy Program. We match low income
elderly and disabled Alexandria residents with volunteers to help remove
snow from their walkways and sidewalks. Allowing the residents to easily
get out of their homes so they can get to doctor appointments and run
errands. I thought this might be a good volunteering opportunity for your
scouts. This volunteering can be done as individuals or whole families. I
try to match volunteers as close as I can with residents who have requested
assistance. Last winter we helped over 60 Alexandria families deal with the
snow. If you would like more information about the program you can check
out our website www.volunteeralexandria.org/snow or e-mail me back.
       

If you are interested in a leadership position (elected or appointed), please indicate your intent by completing the online form located here. Candidates should be First Class or above, and should be able to regularly participate in patrol and Troop meetings and outings. 

Christopher passed his Eagle Board of Review today, to become Troop 301's 35th Eagle Scout. Well done! See the Troop Instagram page for photos.
