PARENT/LEADER MINUTES
JULY 25, 2006


Thanks to the very few that attended this meeting. It really takes a lot of people to make scouting happen. Troy Tatum, Pam Harrison, Lynne Musolf, Paul Waldrop, Millissa Mendiola, Susie Luttrell, David Krape.

Join Scout Night:
- Due to the urgency of this critical activity, voted to reassign responsibility to Susie Luttrell and Cheryl Waldrop – Thanks for volunteering!
- Susie pursued moving the date to Aug 15, but was unable to get the gym on that date.

- Aug 31 @ 7pm will be the big event. Need all scouts and dens to plan to attend.

- Susie working on details and will notify leaders/Pack as things develop. Looking at having 4 booths with activities; powerpoint of pictures; fast start training presentation; pinewood videos, etc. More details forthcoming.

- Need to collect dues for new scouts that evening ($60)


Fall Campout: Millissa Mendiola and Pam Harrison responsible

- Scheduled for Nov 10 through 12, at Tyler State Park, approximately 1.5 hrs from here (but well worth the drive)

- Several have been there and it sounds like it’s very pretty, lots of trees, good fishing, and it will be COOL weather!

- Probably a Thanksgiving Theme (did I hear someone volunteer to be feathered ?)

- 18 Sites reserved

- Cost is $10 per campsite (for the whole weekend) + $3 per adult (over 13) per day – money due to Millissa at the September Pack Meeting
