Troop 71 is enjoying the wilds of summer camp at Camp Ma-Ka-Ja-Wan in northern Wisconsin.  Fun, scout rank requirements, merit badges and good food are on the list of great things happening!  They will return on Saturday.

Parents - We are in need of Assistant Scoutmasters for our adult leadership corps.  Our ASMs help guide the youth leadership team, support outdoor activities, and fill in for the Scoutmaster at times.

From a Tiger Cub Scout to Eagle, twelve years in Scouting, Ethan has earned Scouting America's highest rank.  Along the way, he has hiked across Philmont, participated in the National Jamboree, and explored Devil's Lake among many camping trips.  Ethan has served in leadership in the Troop, in the Order of the Arrow, with National Youth Leadership Training (NYLT), and at National Advanced Youth Leadership Experience (NAYLE).  All of these adventures are available to our Scouts.  If you are interested in doing more as a Scout...just ask.

Last week, we held the Spring Court of Honor.  Many awards were given, many more were earned.  Scouts, if you did not receive what you feel you earned, please send a note to advancement@libertyvilletroop71.org from your Troop Registered e-mail account.  Be sure to specify what you are missing and when you completed the work.

The Guide To Safe Scouting is an overview of the Scouting policies and procedures.  All Leaders should be familiar with the document.  Parents should also review the document.  This is a set of guidelines which forms the backbone of how the Troop and Scouting operate.  It does not cover all situations or everything in detail but is an overview.  Click here for the current online version.  A PDF has been placed in the Files section of the website.
