Popcorn Pickup this Tuesday, November 16
Popcorn orders will be available to pick at the troop meeting this Tuesday. If you can’t be at the troop meeting Tuesday to pick up your order, please contact Kim Ridenhour to make other arrangements. Troop 48 sold $3,429 in popcorn this year, and Scouts earned $761.24 that will be going into Scout Bucks accounts – great job!
December Court of Honor, December 7 – Potluck at 6 PM
We will be holding our December Court of Honor and Troop Christmas Party Potluck on December 7 at 6 PM. We will send out a sign-up for potluck dishes in a couple of weeks, but please save the date and plan to attend with your family. Scouts will have a gift exchange: each Scout who wants to participate will need to bring a wrapped gift with a value of $15 or less.
Scouting for Food
Scouting for Food is an annual service drive sponsored by the Chickasaw Council, Boy Scouts of America, International Paper, the Mid-South Food Bank and local food pantries across the region. Scouts across the Mid-South will soon collect more than 25,000 lbs. of food items for our community’s most needy. The Scouting for Food campaign runs through November 20 and our troop has been asked to fill three (3) grocery bags with items. If you would like to commit to providing some food items, please contact Scoutmaster Issing.
