T133 Parent Information

Hello T133 Family,

Thank you to all the parents who continue to support us in many ways, but especially via popcorn sales, on-site popcorn selling, and also transportation for the Scouts!  We know that everyone is busy, but we would appreciate and encourage more parent/family participation, as well as feedback on our efforts to arrange activities and fundraisers for our troop.  We happily welcome Ms. Lori Morse, a Scout parent who is serving as  a new co-chair of the Troop committee.   I want to echo Mr. Brockman’s appreciation for our hardworking Treasurers and this year’s Popcorn Colonels, Ms. Donna Haughton and Ms. Samantha Pearsall – they work very hard and have given up many precious hours on the Troop’s financial business as well as popcorn sales.  Thank you to Mr. Brockman, who does so many tasks, to Mr. Sadler, Mr.  Stanley, Mr. Livingston, and Mr. Branch.  Also, we will miss the active participation of Mr. Stanley, but we know he’ll be with us whenever possible.
