Eagle MBs: Cooking; Communications; Citizenship in the Community
Rohan's Eagle Project is coming up soon. This is a great opportunity to help out a local food pantry. Details below.
Location- The Storehouse of Collin County, 1401 Mira Vista Blvd, Plano, TX 75093. Room 137.
Date & Time- December 8th, 2018 from 12:00PM-4:00PM (This is how long the room is booked for, but we may get done earlier)
Description- We will be building a podium for a food pantry in Plano. They will use this for client-intake and paperwork. The wood is pre-painted, so we just need to assemble the entire thing. Pizza and cookies will be provided and we will be working indoors. Nobody will need to bring anything, we have all parts, tools, and materials purchased and ready to go. Just show up with closed-toed shoes!
Due to heavy October rains, Connemara Meadow has asked us to move this project to January; date to be finalized in the next couple weeks.
RSVP on our Website so we know who will be attending
From Luke: My project will be at the Connemara Meadow Nature Preserve (Allen, TX) on Saturday, December 15th. People working will need to be there at 9AM and should be done by 5PM. Breakfast and lunch will be provided.
My project will be erosion control alongside Rowlett Creek. We'll be cutting down small trees and brush, making bundles out of them, then staking them alongside the river bank.
Wear old clothes, boots, and work gloves. If possible, please bring safety goggles, and a hand saw.
The entrance is opposite the intersection between Old Alma road and Alma. Alternate parking and entrance can be through Suncreek Park.
We are so thankful for all our adult leaders and our Scout families - for everything you do for all of us. Enjoy this time with your family. There will not be a Troop meeting this Sunday, instead we will see you on December 2nd!
Please note - we have several annoucements worth reading! Winter Camp, High Adventure 2020, Eagle Projects, and Recharter!
High Adventure trips are the pinnacle of the Scouting experience.
Crews forming now for the summer of 2020. Troop 416 will be having crews go to Florida Sea Base (scuba, sailing, or island adventure - to be picked) and Philmont Scout Ranch (backpacking).
Crew sizes are limited - so RSVP today.
The dates on the calendar are approximate - we'll get our actual dates in the next few months.
