Troop calendar is updated with November meetings.  Yes, there is a meeting tonight.

Please be reminded that the Troop will hold its Court of Honor this Sunday, October 25th for the Troop and also Eagle Scout, Jimmy Sweeney, where all troop awards and Jimmy’s Eagle rank will be presented.  Please arrive by 2pm to help set up and prepare for this very special occasion.  As always, families are welcome and encouraged to attend the Court of Honor.

We hope everyone enjoyed their summer and stayed safe and healthy.  With another summer behind us, it’s time to turn our attention to the beginning of another scouting year with Troop 38.  While COVID-19 is still presenting many challenges to our meeting plans, we are now able to have in-person meetings following the State’s social distancing guidelines.  Masks must be worn whenever proper distancing cannot be maintained and a Pre-Event Medical Screening will be required for every adult leader and scout before attending any meeting or event.

Welcome back to scouting.  We hope you and your families have had a safe and healthy summer.  Please note that the first troop meeting of the scouting year will be held on Sunday, September 20th and not tomorrow.  The troop calendar has been updated to reflect the correct start date.  More information will be emailed in the next few days regarding the troop’s outdoor meeting structure during COVID (weather permitting), pre-meeting health check, and information regarding annual registration.

Eagle Scout Candidate, Gavin Schaeffer, would like to request your help in his Eagle Scout Project through book donations.  The project involves building a lending library station for Our Lady of Sorrows School.  The library station will be situated in front of the school for easy access to the public.  In keeping with the pandemic safety guidelines imposed by the State of NJ, Gavin is not asking for volunteers to help build the project but instead asking for your help in filling the library station with books.  This allows the troop an opportunity to be included in support of his project with safety being a priority.  Scouts may also earn service hours for their participation through donations.  The deadline is Wednesday, August 12th.  Additional details are below:
