Mini-Meeting

This week the flu must be traveling around the school we only had 5 of the 8 boys in attendance. Even though we were missing some boys we continued to work to complete Achievements 2 and 9. For the first part of the meeting we reviewed Safety Rules of the street and road (9d). The boys worked on a work sheet and we corrected them together. They also learned how to properly fold the American Flag (2g) we reviewed how to take care of the flag (2c) from last week's meeting. In addition each of the boys showed the maps they drew from their homes to school. They each had to discribe the routes they would take if they were walking or driving. We then talked about how to orient a map using a compass. We then used a Perrysburg map and oriented it using a compass. Each of these skills are a review from last year so the boys who were out didn't miss too much. We will continue to use maps and compasses in the upcoming weeks so the boys can earn the Map and Compass belt loop in November.

This coming week is a busy one, we will be handing out and picking up can goods for Scout for Food and we have our annual Raingutter Regatta on Thursday night.
