Thanks to the guys who provided service to community projects so far this summer: (1) Greg Serpa & David Aspery, who guarded (and raced!) at the Silver Paddle fund-raising canoe race for Simon Kenton Council at Hoover Reservoir; (2) all 3 Francis's, all 2 Williams, and Danny Darby who helped and showed what was going on at the demonstration Rain Garden which Troop 365 helped to plant, on the Certified Garden tour for the National Wildlife Federation in Worthington -- great helps!!

Don't forget: August 10 is the date for Advancement wrap-up and Boards of Review (you must have a Scoutmaster's Conference prior to this date), and it's the last time to turn in advancement. Summer camps and treks go fast; make sure you get the advancement credit you earned, and receive your awards at the Summer Court of Honor!

Welcome to the NEW BSA ANNUAL health & medical form Use this form -- it replaces the former BSA troop and BSA type I-II-III forms -- to give us basic information about your son (or you as an adult). You can open it on the web, fill out the fields, then print the form to complete by signing, or to give to.... (You can save a filled-in form.) When you're done, turn it in to our Scoutmaster. We must have this medical form on file for each person who accompanies us on any trip. We use it to dispense medication, and for emergencies. For high adventure events and treks that result in a person being more than 30 minutes by ground from emergency care, the form requires a health care professional for completion. The form now is an ANNUAL REQUIREMENT, so frequent renewal is required. Many parents do this when their boys take a sports physical, while adults take it with for their annual examination.

Check ODNR's map of parks that have camping! Here are some good ones with great group camps: Hocking Hills (rappelling, hiking); Kelley's Island (cooking); Lake Loramie (canoeing, fishing); Tar Hollow (backpacking, state forest prowling)... You get the point. And there's more on our Trip Planning pages.
