Life to Eagle

Monthly Life to Eagle packet reviews are going to be held the second Thursday of each month at 7:30 PM at the District Roundtable held at St. John’s Lutheran Church in Sinking Spring. These conferences are for Scouts who recently made Life Rank and are preparing to earn the rank of Eagle Scout. The packet will be reviewed with the Scout and his parent at this conference.

Reviews at other times may be arranged by special appointment.

For further questions or for special scheduling, please contact Leon Grim at 610-373-1208.

Register Those New Cub Scouts and Leaders

The BSA insurance program does not cover youth and adults until they are properly registered. Adult applications require two signatures, the unit chairman and the chartered organization representative or institutional head. Registrations cannot be processed without them. Applications received without proper signatures will be returned to the appropriate unit leader.

Membership – It is Always Time to Sell the Adventure

This year’s school recruitment went well throughout most of the district. The unit leaders and commissioners deserve a big thank you for doing a great job. The recruitment effort does not stop with School Night. Adults should talk to friends with children of scouting age. Talk about Scouting at church, social groups and work. Make your love of Scouting known. Encourage your Scouts to invite friends to join. There is a lot of competition for children’s time and if we don’t sell it year round a lot of boys will miss the chance to belong to one of the best youth organizations available. The truth is, it can take up to six invitations before a boy will join. Don’t give up the challenge, the results are worth it. Recruit that Boy Today!
