January 8, 2018 - Meeting Details!

Update from Scoutmaster Michael Fairclough:

The troop will be given hands-on instruction related to fire starting and fire safety. A key exercise in the activity is learning how to light a match and strike a ferro rod.

Each scout will have the opportunity to assemble, prepare and pack an emergency survival kit that they will take home with them. Part of the kit includes 3 storm-proof matches, however these matches will not be given directly to the Scout but rather the parent. Pending parental approval, a Scout can easily add the matches to their fire kits at a later time.

Given the nature of this activity, I am also urging parents to not allow their Scout to power on their phones during the meeting in order to keep an alert and safe environment.

Lastly, the meeting would benefit from some ASM’s volunteering to oversee a learning station. If you are willing, please email me and I will get you assigned.
