Hello, and happy end of summer! 

Our next event as a troop is next weekend, August 23 from 9am to noon at Ritter Park Shelter in southern Cary.

The pancake breakfast is our traditional kick-off event for the new scouting year! It is a time to come together, eat pancakes -that the scouts make- and a few other goodies and then have our first court of honor, when scouts who have made rank or earned awards and merit badges, can get these presented. This is a "Class A" event for scouts and leaders. Parents should plan to attend. 

The troop will provide: 

Pancakes

Syrup

Coffee

Sausage

Each family is asked to bring a topping, like fruit, fruit, or fruit (ok, and maybe some sprinkles, or chocolate chips...) and also a juice to share. 

We will eat until we are full, then proceed with the court of honor. We are typically done before noon. 

Any adventurous scout that would like to come and start cooking early, we anticipate being there by 8:45am.  A big thank you to Mr. Fitzgerald for organizing the nuts and bolts of the event..

The Court of Honor will also include:

Election of new Senior Patrol Leader

Briefing from the three summer camps our troop attended

Introduction of some new members

I look forward to seeing everyone again, and getting another great year started!

Mr. Bowman
