Reminder: Scout Pick Up Time

Posted on Sep 12 2025 - 1:00pm

As a friendly reminder, please ensure you arrive on time to pick up your Scout at the end of each meeting or activity. Our volunteer leaders generously give their time, and timely pick-up helps us all keep things running smoothly.

Thank you for your continued support of our troop! We appreciate the opportunity to lead your Scouts and help them grow.

 

Sign Up for GroupMe Notifications

Posted on Jun 25 2025 - 3:23pm

We are moving from the Remind app to GroupMe for time-sensitive announcements (like campout return time). This is primarily due to a change that Remind made to text message notification capabilities. GroupMe allows text message notifications to be turned on and should be a good solution for us.

Please sign-up ASAP. We will be using GroupMe for future announcements.
