Most of us will start getting the Annual Scout Renewal Notices soon. Please be on the lookout for them.

For adults there are also notifications about needed trainings as well. Remember these trainings need to be up to date for adults to participate in Troop events.

Most of the Troop will be or has recently received notification via email of the annual recharter/renewal process.

Assuming your Scout has enough funds in their Scout Account this is an expense that can be reimbursed to you.

The Troop Holiday Party will be December 14th.  There will be a gift exchange for those who wish to participate.  Gifts have a $20 limit and would ideally be Scouting related.  No knives or lighters allowed.

Tomorrow is the November Court of Honor.  The event will kick off at 6 pm.  Plenty of awards and merit badges and advancements being recognized, look forward to seeing you there.

There are lots of different websites that Scouting utilizes to track your Scout's progress for merit badges and advancement, all merit badge pamphlets and Troop specific information.  All the sites can be very confusing and overwhelming, so here is a quick overview.  If for some reason you do not have access to a site please reach out to one of the Adult Leadership and we'll work on helping you get set up. **Just remember that when you are signing up for the various sites, that you use an email address that you check regularly.

The tracking sheets for the individual Scout's National Outdoor Awards activities has been imported into SOAR.  If you want to see what your Scout has achieved so far and what they need to do to achieve an award you can check the sheet.  If you have any questions about the sheet, please reach out to Nichole or Josh Call.  The document can be found here.  https://ankeny182.mytroop.us/system/files/NationalOutdoorAwardsTracking11152025.pdf
