BSA Troop 820

There will be no meeting this week. Please enjoy your national championship game.

Please note that there will be no more Troop 820 meetings in 2010. Our next meeting is likely Monday, January 10, 2011.

Don’t forget, we’ll be handing out Christmas tree recycling flyers next Wednesday, December 29. Please be at the Moose Lodge by 1:00.

If you haven’t signed up for Christmas tree recycling during the first two weekends in January, please contact Mark Teeter or Steve Larson to volunteer. Every scout should choose two shifts.

The calendar at the bottom of the page is currently placing events on the wrong days. This seems to be a problem with Google Calendar embedding and they are actively working to fix the problem. Until then, you should use the Agenda page or click on the “Google Calendar” button in the bottom right corner of the calendar.

We apologize for any inconvenience.

Update: This problem was fixed by Google and the calendar dates should appear correctly now.

All the dates that have been finalized have been added to our calendar (visible at the bottom of this page). In addition, we are planning the following but have not picked dates:

• November: East County Swim
• March: Trailblazers game
• April: Mini-golf
• June: Camp Namanu, Family Camp (biking)
• August: Ramona Falls
• September: Ropes course
• October: Mountain bike ride

Because we’re starting merit badge classes, it would be very helpful if you could read the merit badge books. Except for the fact that we don’t have enough books for everyone, so there is the Merit Badge Wiki which has many requirements from Scout to Eagle Palms, as well as all current merit badges with updated requirements, and worksheets for all merit badges. Really great website, so you should check it out.

On a side note, the calendar has been updated through November (scroll down for it).
