July 4th 2008 Parade
Once again our Troop has the honor to be asked to carry the flag in the Finneytown 4th of July Parade. Scouts and Scouters are welcome to join us in the Parade.
Assemble in full uniform (including campaign hats) at 10:30 AM on Friday, July 4th, at the corner of Harbury Dr. and Greenfield Dr. The Parade begins at 10:45 AM. The Parade route is shown below, ending in the circle of Burgundy Lane.
We will carry the US Flag and our Troop Flag, and will raise a US Flag in the circle of Burgundy Lane.
In preparations for Summer Camp, you may find the following information useful.
We are going to Camp Friedlander once again. If you are unfamiliar with Friedlander, they have an excellent website to help you get acquainted with the camp.
The camp has many forms and instructions available on their downloads page. In particular, you may need the following items:
- Program Schedule shows the various programs offered through the week.
- Prerequisites lists the programs and the specific requirements for each one.
- Troop 857 Merit Badge Counselors page where you can also find the specific requirements for each Merit Badge.
- Art Merit Badge is a very popular, but requires a visit to an Art museum, gallery, etc. to complete. You should plan to do this before you arrive at camp.
- Pottery Merit Badge is another popular badge, but requires a visit to a school or facility that has a working kiln. You should plan to do this before you arrive at camp.
- Packing List
- Workshops explains the new program this year at Friedlander, allowing boys the chance to earn multiple handicraft merit badges.
- Hunter Education is another new program offered at camp, and is available for both boys and adults who are interested in obtaining an Ohio Hunting License.
- Troop 857 Notes is the handout you received from Mr. Stegman at the June 3rd summer Camp Meeting.
- Element of Danger Form is required for anyone participating in COPE, Climbing Merit Badge, Voyager (High Adventure), or Open Climb on the tower.
- SCUBA and Snorkel Release Form and SCUBA Medical Statement Form are required for anyone participating in PADI Snorkeling and/or PADI SCUBA. If you are Snorkeling only, the SCUBA Medical Statement does not need to be signed by your Physician.
On May 27 we will be honoring Scott and Marcus by awarding their Eagle rank at the Court of Honor. Please dress in full uniforms, including neckerchiefs and merit badge sashes.
On April 29 we will be honoring Jonathan by awarding his Eagle rank at the Court of Honor. Please dress in full uniforms, including neckerchiefs and merit badge sashes.
Additional details will be coming soon.
