POPCORN KICKOFF MEETING

Hello Scout families! 

It's time for our annual Welcome Back pack meeting and popcorn fundraiser launch meeting. This year, it will take place on Tuesday, August 13 at 6:30 at Dickinson First United Methodist Church. We'll be discussing the calendar of events and going over details of the popcorn fundraiser, which is the only fundraiser we will have.

If you are not a new Scout and have your class A uniform, please wear it to this meeting. New Scouts, you can get uniforms from one of the local Scout shops in the area, but you are not required to be in uniform at this first meeting. Please email me if you have questions about where to get uniforms. We will also have our royal blue Class B T-shirts for sale that night. Those are great to wear at outings and den meetings throughout the year. Both adult and child sizes will be available. 

Parents, we will be asking for you to turn in a copy of your Scout's shot records this fall, so please make arrangements to get those to us as soon as possible. We can accept them at Tuesday's meeting if you have them ready. 

The church is providing child care for siblings of Scouts. (Scouts will be expected to be at the meeting and seated with their parents.) If you need care for a younger child, please email me back and let me know the name of the sibling and their age as soon as possible so the church can arrange for the correct number of sitters. If we don't hear back from you, we can't guarantee your young one a spot in the child care room that night. 

Also, please consider having your Scout wear his Class A uniform to your Meet the Teacher night. This will give your new teacher some valuable information about your son's activities outside of school, and generate interest in Scouting. 

Thank you guys so much, and we'll see you Tuesday!
