Scouts and Families—

First, please extend a welcome to our newest two Scouts, Jack and Payden, who crossed over from Pack 166 this past weekend.  Welcome aboard!

Second, as a reminder to all Scouts.  You should be wearing your uniform shirt to all troop meetings and activities, and if you are not yet a First Class Scout both your neckerchief and Scout handbook are required items for your uniform.  There is no excuse not to be bringing your handbook to meetings and activities.

Third, the PLC (youth leaders) is implementing a new policy regarding cell phones.  Basically, unless a Scout is looking something up for a troop meeting, if a PLC member sees a phone during the meeting that phone will be confiscated and provided to an adult leader until the end of the meeting.

Finally, a reminder that the troop calendar is available on the main page of the troop website (www.troop222bsa.org), and is also available as a Google calendar that you can synchronize with your personal Google calendar if you use it (send me an email if you do not have access to the troop calendar).  You can also subscribe to the weekly Troop text blast by sending a text message to 81010 with the message @cd6cc.

Here is the monthly summary of upcoming troop activities.
