Check Back Here Often for Announcements and Updates!!!Trailer FundraiserTroop 44 has purchased a Troop trailer. Troop trailers provide a way to store and transport all necessary equipment needed for scouting events. With this in mind, the Troop now participates in the Friends of Dino's fundraising program. This program is designed to help local non-profit groups obtain donations from Dino's. The program works as follows: For every Dino's receipt that the troop turns in, we receive 1% of the total dollars. There is no limit on how much we can earn and there is no time limit either. *****PLEASE TURN ALL OF YOUR DINO'S RECEIPTS INTO THE TROOP AT THE WEEKLY MEETINGS SO THAT WE CAN TAKE ADVANTAGE OF THIS VERY EASY FUNDRAISER ***** The Troop requires that ALL Scouts own at least 1 red Troop Tee Shirt. This tee shirt is required dress for ALL service projects, the spring breakfast and for summer camp. Shirts are available for purchase in all sizes from Mr. Sherman at a cost of $7.00 per shirt. On August 4th and 5th, Dan Sherman will be performing an Eagle Project at the Ponaganset High School Cross Country Trail. Dan's project consists of: power washing and staining of a bridge, rebuilding a retaining wall and re-marking the trail. Help is needed between the hours of 10:00 and 2:00 (both days). If you are able to attend, please bring gloves, rakes and clippers. Food and drink will be provided. Any questions, please contact Dan @ 568-2048 Troop 44 has adopted an operating policy. Please take time to read it over. There have been no significant changes in the way we operate, and the purpose of the document is to communicate our policies to all members of the Troop. One area that has been further defined is regarding rank advancement as it relates to attendance (page 7).
