1. Committee Meeting tonight at 6pm (Monday 3/1/2010)
2. The next summer camp payment of $90 is due and must be paid by the 8th - This is payment 2 of 3.
If you have any problems with getting the payment to me by that date please communicate with me -this payment must be in before the Scout can be registered for his merit badge choices.
3. More on Summer Camp: last month the committee voted that the boys will leave for camp on Sat morning instead of Sun morning as they have in the past. They will arrive at Camp Daniel Boone late Sat afternoon and this will cost an extra $15 per person. This pays for the extra night of camping and the associated 3 meals. We felt that this was the best plan due to the distance to the camp. This amount will be collected with the last payment
4. The week of March 15 is Spring Break - there will be no meeting on Monday, March 15.
5. Information on the March Outing/Activity will be provided later - we need for the Scouts to get more involved in the activities - lately we have had to cancel several activities due to lack of participation.
6. Tonight we will begin working on 4 historical merit badges that can only be earned this year as part of the 100 years of Scouting celebrations. The four badges are Carpentry, Tracking, Pathfinding, and Signaling. These badges have been retired and this one time opportunity to earn the badges includes the historic requirements. The first one we will work on is Pathfinding. The boys will complete most of the work for these badges as a group but some outside work may be required.
1. Committee Meeting will be April 5th at 6pm.
2. April 19 will be Court of Honor. Please encourage your Scout to work on rank advancement requirements and partially completed merit badges.

As most of you all now by now, Scouting lost one of its very own during the tragedy at the University of Alabama in Huntsville earlier this month. Dr Adriel D. Johnson, Sr was an Assistant Scoutmaster at Troop 102 at First Missionary Baptist Church in Huntsville, a recipient of the District Award of Merit, the Silver Beaver, and the Whitney M. Young, Jr awards. He was an Eagle Scout and a Lifetime member of the National Eagle Scout Association (NESA). His eldest son, Adriel, Jr (AD) was also an Eagle Scout, and his younger son, Jeriel, was completing the final requirements for his Eagle award. As an Associate Professor of Biology he used his knowledge to teach Scouts at Day Camp about nature and science by dressing a skeleton in a scout shirt, cap, and sunglasses following that age-old Scouting adage…make learning fun. He was also a active member of ScoutReach’s Urban Emphasis Scout Leaders Council (UESLC) bringing Scouting values to urban and rural disadvantaged youth.
Consequently the members of the Urban Emphasis Scout Leaders Council have initiated a monetary tribute to be presented to the Greater Alabama Council of the Boy Scouts of America as a memorial on behalf of Dr. Adriel D. Johnson, Sr. Contributions may be made payable to the “UESLC” and dropped off at the Huntsville or Birmingham Scout offices (you may put “Dr Adriel Johnson” in the note section of the check), or you may mail your contributions to BSA, 2211 Drake Ave, Huntsville, AL 35805.

If you need a hike to earn the hiking merit badge or just want a fun trip
over spring break, the following information is from Ben Peters. Just make
sure you give Mr. Rideout a trip report and make sure you have the blue card
started.
Ben has the opportunity to go backpacking on the AT over spring break with
Gene Joiner, the Exec. Director of Maranatha Camp and Conference Center (a
Presbyterian camp). Gene is trying to form a group of young men and women
to go on this backpacking trip. The goal is “to teach leadership qualities
in an outdoor setting, challenging them to live, learn, and discover
attributes of Leadership and life.”. The trip will be 32 miles over several
days.
Gene Joiner is ex-military and very qualified to lead this group. He gets
along very well with youth (Ben loves him!) and loves helping to develop
leadership qualities in young people. Please look on the Maranatha website
for Genes qualifications.
