Please update your medical form for all family members that participate in Scout activities.  This includes Scouts and any family member that goes camping or any other activity that we do as a Troop (bike rides, fishing, etc.).  Due to our extended absence from in person activities, most of our Medical Forms are now out of date.  At minimum, please complete form parts A & B and bring a hard copy to the next in person meeting that you attend.  Please do not email the form, as this is against BSA policy and HIPPA laws.

 Hard copies can be given to Carey Surrency or Susan Rees.

 NOTE - BSA has updated the forms and the new forms must be in place for 2021.  To make the transition easier, please complete the new form now, so you will not have to update again in January.  A link to the forms is below.

 Remember that a Doctors signature is required for Part C, which is needed for extended trips like Winter and Summer camp.  We do not need Part C immediately, but please provide a copy as soon as you are able.

 It is suggested that you keep a copy of these forms yourself as well as provide a copy to the troop.  There may be events that you attend where the form in required and we do not want to separate the Troop copies.

 Any questions can be directed to Carey Surrency or Susan Rees.

We're selling poinsettias again this year and you can start selling now with calls and emails to your family, friends, and neighbors.  Please DO NOT sell door-to-door, for numerous safety reasons.  Orders and Money are due by November 9th.

• Make copies of the attached order form as needed
• Checks are payable to Troop 422
• 6” pots are $12 each 
• 8” pots are $20 each
• We’ll get our plants in late November (usually the meeting after Thanksgiving)
• Profits (directly to your Scout Account) will be at least $5 per 6” pot and at least $6.50 per 8” pot. (If the Troop sells a lot, then your profits will be higher!)

• Contact Mrs. Galloway with questions at 770-653-5172 (call or text) or HeatherGalloway@comcast.net -- copy a parent on written communication

If you are interested in selling Poinsettias as a fundraiser this year, please let Mrs. Rees or Mrs. Galloway know that you would like to sell.  If there is enough interest, we will conduct the sale.

Our Troop had a Virtual Court of Honor on August 10th.  Any Merit Badges, Rank Advancements, and other awards were mailed the week prior.  If you were expecting any aawrds and did not receive them, or they were damaged, please let Mrs. Rees or Mrs. Galloway know ASAP.

Please be sure to turn in any completed Merit Badges and Ranks to Mrs. Galloway by this Monday, July 27.  We are working on a virtual Court of Honor to celebrate everyone's accomplishments!

Come join Keep Cobb Beautiful at our free and fun environmental educational Zoom class on July 23^rd .  This is an invitation for school age youth; however, the “young at heart” is also welcomed to join us.  We will discuss the benefits of trees and will make our own leaf print “fossil”!
