Transatlantic Council Troop Jamboree 2010

Parents and Scouters,

Just a few quick notes for the Jamboree.

1) Physicals – If you have not received an electronic copy of your physical, or are having other problems with them please contact Angela Watson.  b_awatson@yahoo.com

2) Payments – Please be reminded your payments are due, if you have not already done so please communicate with Karen Meier kmeier@bsamail.org

3) Patches, Patches and more Patches – Yes the CSPs are in,  we have a few options and will discuss at the upcoming committee meeting on 24 October.  Also,  for participant CSPs and patches, we plan to hand these our at the January meeting to those who have paid IAW timeline.  Please keep in mind scouts will only get two participant patches, so if you drop or change council you are expected to replace the patches to whomever takes your spot.

4) Youth Leadership – 24 Oct we will have a huddle with all ASMs and decide youth leadership positions, please be patient

5) 3rd Assistant Scoutmaster - We have had three applicants, all worthy young men.  We will attempt to hold a teleconference on the 24th to conduct interviews with those candidates and make the final selection.

6) Committee Meeting – If you haven’t guessed by now we will have a committee meeting on the 24th of October from 4-6 p.m.  We do not expect you to drive from any great distances, but if you are available and in the Stuttgart Area or willing to attend we hope to see you there.  This is not just for committee members, but any parent willing to help.  A special thanks to Peter Grunau who volunteered to serve as our chairman for the TAC contingent.
