For all scouts who are interested, the Lifesaving merit badge will be offered in October, before the weather gets too chilly. It'll be 5 classes in October, with attendance required at all five to get the merit badge.

If your scout or you are going to the canoe campout this month, please go campout roster ASAP and add how they will be getting there in the ride share section. If you're also attending and driving, add your car and detail if you have room to take another scout. We have scouts looking for rides and they can't find them if we don't have adults listing their cars. If you need to add your scout to a car, please contact the driver first to confirm.

Reminder that troop elections are Tuesday 9/10 at meeting. Scouts should come prepared in full class A uniform with speeches if you're interested in running for a position.

Registration for the Sept 20-22 canoeing campout is now open at https://www.454.org/node/3783. Deadline for signs is September 8 due to logistics planning needed for this campout.

Jake Fergerson & Wyatt Davila of Troop 52 and Kathryn Yoas & Marie Fergerson of Troop 454 are hosting a one mile orienteering course that they have put together. All four Scouts are working on completing their orienteering merit badge and will be setting up the course and then running kids through the course starting every 30 minutes. They are running the course in groups of 5 Scouts, adults are required to stay during their Scouts navigation time. The course will take between 45 to 90 minutes to complete.

Troop 454 parents, while we strive to have our scouts lead our troop activities, we depend on parents for many reasons. Please take a moment to take this survey to let us know areas that you can assist our troop.
