Monday's meeting (October 3rd) will be a Patrol Leaders Council (PLC) meeting. 

Did you know that there is a First Class requirement to find a friend or inactive scout and invite them to a Troop meeting, service project or activity? The Troop Recruitment Lock-in is scheduled for November 5th at the VFW. Camping, Scout Skills, Games, Movies and Fun will all be on the agenda. Reach out to friends and family, (Webelos or AOL Scout age) and invite them out! Signup on the Troop site. 

Signup today to attend Webelos Woods, October 21-23. This is one of the most important recruitment opportunities for our unit. The theme this year is the Wild West. Dust off your boots and cowboy hat and join us out at Camp Green Dixon!  We are also still looking for a scout and adult to help with the planning. 

Attention all Registered BSA and Troop Members. The Diocese of Austin requires that All volunteers that work with youth must be EIM certified. If you are a Committee Member, Scoutmaster, Assistant Scoutmaster or Merit Badge Counselor then you fall into this category. Essentially, if you are registered as a BSA Member and registered with Troop 448 then you are required to maintain your EIM certification. This is similar to YPT but not the same course. The way I view it it's more education to help us protect the youth of our unit. More will be coming this weekend but note that there is an upcoming EIM class on October 13 at St Catherine. More to come. 

T-bird District invites all adult leaders, especially those new to their roles, in Thunderbird, Armadillo & Waterloo Districts to receive position-specific training in one single evening! Experienced leaders in each adult volunteer position will be present to give guidance and answer questions about adult positions in Troops & Packs. See the calendar event for more details.
