S.M.S.for 3-24-24

Posted by swolfgram on Mar 25 2024 - 1:56am
Good Evening Everyone!
 
It's spring break for most of if not all of our members. Because so few people are going to read this within the next 48 hours I will save my whitty opening for next weeks issue. 
 
Here's the news!
 
This Monday Night:
No troop meeting
Spring break week, see you next week.
 
Spring 2024 Mulch fundraiser:
#1. What is this fundraiser?
Troop one has teamed up with Midwest Compost to launch our 2024 spring mulch fundraiser. This year's prices are the same as last year and are a fantastic way for the boys to make some summer cash. After selling a few yards of mulch, if asked, you can also offer up your services to your customer to help spread the mulch for a nominal fee. This is one of the more lucrative events of the year. 
 
#2. How do I place an order?                                                                                                                                                                                                                                              Order using the paper forum or calling it in:
Attached are the simple paper forums that Andie has made up. Just fill out the forum and send it in to our email. You can also give stevan a call with the order. Once an order is received and confirmed it will be placed within 48 hours.   

Order through our online option:                                                                                                                                                                                                                                              If you wish to order online rather on the phone or sending in an email you can go to our square site. We have a few online only items and it's worth a look to see what we have. When you select the product to purchases don't forget to also add shipping to your order. For example, if I were to add 3 yards of double ground to the cart I also need to add the shipping to St.Charles option. Square is giving us a little trouble linking shipping to the product selection or auto filling the distance. Whenever you or anyone on your list buy's something using our square site please let us know so as to be on the lookout for the notice.   Here is the map to help with determining distance.

Good Evening Everyone!
 
I would first like to thank everyone that came out for Bradly's eagle project on Saturday. We had a FANTASTIC turn out and we removed over 20,000 pounds of junk from the trailers that he was working on. Any regular project is a big undertaking. Bradly's project was an even bigger one. The second work day will be on April 6th at 10am so please put it on your calendar now to save the date. 
 
What happened today? We got 3 new scouts today and another 2 turning in the paper work on Monday. 
With five in total I would say that that's a good week.  
 
What's coming up this week?
 
This Monday Night:
 
Troop Meeting
St. Marks church, 101 s 6th ave
MAr 18th, 7:00 - 8:15p
This week we will be discussing the upcoming camp-out and or the day outing. I foolishly placed the camp-out right at the beginning of spring break week not realizing this until the last moment. I know a few of the boys will be out of town. We will figure out who's coming and what we are able to do after we get the report back from the boys.  
 
Spring 2024 Mulch fundraiser
Sales are open!
Back this year by popular demand is our mulch spring fundraiser.  Attached is this year's flyer and the sale numbers are all the same. Try to reach out to as many people as you can and the adults should try to do the same. This is a fantastic way to make some money for this year's camping and activities schedule. You can also negotiate with the customer to hire you to spread the mulch for them. All profit goes to the scout and goes to their scout account.  Whenever you place an order or get a sale please let us know as we want to get the mulch you the customer in a timely manner. Make sure you use the troop email when doing so. We have some web only products for sale so check the links on our site.
 
March Camp-out
This March we will be camping at Johnson's mound forest preserve on Mar 22nd - 24th. We have the cabin this year so weather is not a factor. 
The preserve's address is 41 W 600 Hughes rd Elburn IL, 60119
We need to see how many people are going to be around for the camp-out. This is right at the beginning of spring break and we may have a good number of people out of town for the week. If that is the case then we can do a day trip or overnight. 
Please let us know if you will be around that weekend.

Merit badge monday and guest attendee's:
This Monday we will be hosting two cub scouts, a scout that is thinking about transferring and a young man that has never been in scouts and is looking to join. The perfect ice breaker for this meeting would be the pet's merit badge and the troop's pet rock. Brock the rock has been with us for many years. Whether you have the pet's badge or not, we always have a good time with Brock. Let's put on a good show for our guests.

Good evening everyone
 
Kansas City wins by 3 in overtime. How do I know? I'm prophetic. 
 
After the strange weather we've been having this past winter we were afraid that we wouldn't be able to put this year's ski trip together. Thank God we did. The kids had a good time and no one came back with anything broken. Always a plus in my book.  
 
Here's what's new this week.   
 
This Monday Night:
 
Dinner with the Legion
Veterans Hall, 311 n 2nd street
Feb 12th 6p - 7p
Join the troop this month as we dine in with the American Legion at the veterans hall.
Help serve dinner and join in the fellowship. Set-up will begin at 5:45ish with dinner to follow at 6p
 
Spring Fundraiser:
Mulch: Back by unanimous demand we will be bringing back this spring fundraiser. We hope to have the paperwork ready to go by the end of next week.
 
Pancake breakfast: With the backing of the American legion we are putting together details on an April pancake fundraiser. We will be getting the information together and talking about dates in a week.  
 
Pack 110 invite
Pack 110 has four scouts that were looking to join us on one of our outings. They have not yet chosen a troop and are wanting to see what we are about and who we are as a troop. We have a few options that are within the next week. The 2024 Chicago auto show and a trip down to the city for a free day at one of the museums. Just two of the ideas floated. When told of our potential ideas the leaders and kids seemed rather interested.
