Reminder- Parent Meeting Tonight and Camp Card Money Due Tonight

WOW.. There is so much going on tonight.

If you have not gotten any of the email blast from the website or Facebook, then you need to go to the Troop website http://bsatroop875.org/  and over on the right hand side you will see where it says “GET THE TROOP NEWS IN YOUR EMAIL INBOX!”  Put your email address and SIGN UP!!!!!  Also request to join the Troop 875 Facebook page.

1.      Parent Meeting tonight: 6:30 PM at the Church- Don’t just drop your Scout off tonight. Come in and learn about what your son does and about the Troop. There will be a Q&A at the end. Please note this is not a time for Personal questions about your son, please set up a time to meet privately for that.

2.      Camp Cards- EVERY Scout took Camp Cards home with them in March. They either need to be returned ( 10 Cards) or $50 need to be turned in tonight. If you only sold a portion, that is ok. Turn in what you sold and the remaining cards.

3.      SUMMER CAMP Payment- Summer Camp payments are due tonight. Please ensure if you have not paid in full for Summer Camp that you make arrangements tonight. We are still working on travel cost and should have those finalized by next week to be able to give you a figure.

Again, we can always use more adult helpers
Thanks
