Subject: SCOUT NEWS FOR EVERYONE
Dear Cubs, Scouts, and Parents,
Once again, fabulous job on our first Cub and Scout Breakfast. Steve Buck is going to give us the statistics, but and he and talked the day and he mentioned that over 1,200 pancakes were eaten, along with 360 eggs, 30 pounds of bacon, which I think translates into 600 strips and the crowd went through 200 paper plates. This was a tremendous success and all the credit goes to you our parents, Scouts, and leaders. Special thanks goes out to Mr. Livingston who worked the door the whole time and I don't think got a chance to eat an entire breakfast.
As we move along into the Scout year we have a host of activities going on. Please take note of the following two Sunday which are going to occur at St. Thomas.
Sunday 20 February - Coffee Hour
The St. Thomas Scout Program will host coffee hour in honor of our Scout Anniversary which occurs in February. Scouting came to the U.S. on 8 February 1910. As a practice in the past when hosting coffee hour Scout parents have conducted a bake sale. This is not required unless there are parents who would like to do so. If there are parents who want to do so, please coordinate with Mr. Morrow and select a coordinator. The coordinator will take charge of putting the sale together with other parents. We will ask for some Scouts to be present and Scout leaders are welcome if they choose to attend/or set up a display of Scouting activity for their Scout group. Those who would like to help with coffee hour need to arrive at St. Thomas no later than 11:30 a.m. and help clean up at the end. Everything should be finished by 1:00 p.m. For St. Thomas Scouts who attend services there you may bring your uniform and change at the Church.
Sunday 27 February - Scout Sunday
All Scouts are asked to attend Sunday services in full Class "A" uniform on Sunday 27 February. Services begin at 10:00 a.m. and will end at 12:00 noon. Parents are invited to attend. Scouts who currently do not have a complete uniform are asked to submit a individual uniform inventory sheet to identify what uniform items they need. We will see what can be done to assist Scouts without a uniform. The inventory sheets will be available on Saturday. We would like as many Scouts as possible to attend. This gathering is the one time of the year when the Scout program can show it's growth and vitality and is a tremendous help in getting support to include financial contributions from the parishioners of St. Thomas.
Yours in Scouting,
J.R. Brockman Scoutmaster Troop 133 609-381-9981 http://phillyscouts133.blogspot.com/
