bulletHISTORICAL MERIT BADGES ADDED

As part of the centennial year celebration of the Boy Scouts of America, Camp Manatoc is pleased to offer 3 of the 4 historical merit badges this summer!

Carpentry, Signaling, and Tracking have been added to our merit badge offerings in 2010. Remember these merit badges are for 2010 only.

All 3 classes will be offered from 3:30 - 5:00pm on Monday, Wednesday, Thursday and Friday. Due to the limited nature and expected popularity of these merit badges Scouts may only earn one of these historical merit badges during a week at camp.

An information sheet about this program is available here.

ENTERPRENEURSHIP MERIT BADGE

Entrepreneurship Merit Badge was inadvertently removed from the Program Guidebook, it is still being offered as indicated on the instructional schedule.

Welcome new scouts.  Remember to:

1. Register, (I can't transfer your records to the troop after March) 

2. Go over the Youth Protection insert in the front of your book with a parent,

3. Practice your "Scout" rank must-know's (just like Arrow of Light)

4. Class 1 Health form ( which lists "things we might need to know" and who we should call in case of an emergency.

5. See the "Getting Started with Troop 652" page

 

Mr. Jack Wygonski will be issuing troop tents in April & May.  There's a form that goes with the tents saying that you'll return the tent in good condition when you leave the troop or you'll pay $50 toward helping to replace the tent.  A parent must read and sign the form in addition to the scout signing it.

 

All of the new scouts should earn their "Scout" rank as quickly as possible.  Please  remember to go over the youth protection stuff in the front of the book with a parent or guardian!   Practice the other requirements and ask for a Scoutmaster Conference!

 

All new scouts should have received a video DVD showing how to do all the requirements through first class rank.  

Scout Parents:

I found a brief summary describing how parents can be involved in their son's scouting experience - scan down the left to see what best describes your situation, then scan the possibilities for your involvement. Click Here.

Pages extracted from the "Scout Parenting Book"

We'll need some parent/adult volunteers to learn the Committee positions from the current people so that we won't lose any knowledge as people graduate from the troop.  Nobody has indicated that they are leaving their positions  but we need to "Be Prepared."  We'll probably schedule a parent meeting in March to ask for people to staff committee positions and "events" (like Mrs. Schuster did for Popcorn, others who have handled the Brecksville Home Days Pop Sale and Summer Camp Family Night dinner) and putting outings together like the Gettysburg trip, etc.)

2010 Summit County is now also a "Quarantine" county.  This should mean that we can take firewood from Cuyahoga County into Summit County (Manatoc, for example) and back.
2006 Emerald Ash Borer Notice for Firewood
Cuyahoga County has been added to the quarantine list for the Emerald Ash Borer.  No non-coniferous firewood (hardwood) is to leave a quarantined area under any circumstances.   Do not to take any firewood out to Beaumont or Manatoc/Butler or Avery Hand.    Non-coniferous means any hardwood but would not include pine.)  Current updated information is available at: ohioagriculture.gov/eab
