GoFundMe for Eagle Scout Service Project - Pearce W.

Posted on Jul 15 2024 - 7:31am
Dear Troop 235.
I am reaching out to ask for your support in my Eagle Scout project through donations. For my project, I will be giving back to my elementary school by building four new raised planter boxes for the schools garden program so that kids can learn about planting and growing plants and food. I will be using the high quality materials necessary like redwood to ensure the safety and long lasting of the four new planter boxes. If you are interested in donating to support my Eagle Project, please use the GoFundMe link below. A work day will be scheduled soon.
 
 
Yours in Scouting,
Pearce W.

Mandatory Summer Camp Gear Check

We have added 2 gear checks for summer camp to the troop web site. It is mandatory that each scout going to summer camp rsvp for and attend at least one of the gear checks. If a scout cannot make either, they will need to coordinate a time with Mr Fordham to do a gear check before we leave for camp.

Medical Forms/Immunization Record

Parents: if you have any doubt about whether your scout’s vaccine *immunization record* in your submitted medical forms is up to date or not, then please go ahead and send Mrs. Rachel Shih the current *immunization record* again.  Forms can either be handed to Mrs. Shih at the next troop meeting or you can email Mrs. Shih.
