Summer is in full swing, and so are our activities. Service is at the core of what scouting is about, so please sign up for the Service Campout at Fort Ancient. Summer Camp is also quickly approaching, so please see me with your merit badge pre-requisites. Do not wait until the last minute.
 
Congratulations to our new Order of the Arrow Brotherhood and Ordeal members.
 
Yours in Scouting

Does that tractor need a bumper sticker that reads "My other vehicle is an SUV"?

But seriously, here's just another exmple of Troop 200 providing service hours to our charter organization, Northwest United Methodist Church.

Troop 200 Committee Directory

Troop 200 now has a pictorial committee directory!

We hope that this helps our new (and not so new) parents recognize and contact Scout committee members as needed. Now you have a face to put with a name. Please take a look at this helpful document. You can also find the link under the "Troop Information" section on the troop's home page.

Thanks to Mr. McCartt for recognizing this need and putting together a solution.

2009 is Scouting's Centennial Year
