I wanted to give a heads up on next week’s troop meeting as it will be a presentation on high adventure opportunities presented by Dan Uhle.  For the younger parents, Dan is a past Scoutmaster of Troop 918 and father of multiple Troop 918 Eagle Scouts.

Trail Ride at Nagel Explorer Base (Beaumont) 

On May 9 the Troop is scheduled for a horseback trail ride at Beaumont.  The program will start at 1:30 pm and last approximately 1.5 hours, of which about 45 minutes will be the actual riding.  

Congratulations to Jason Pate who earned BSA's top rank of Eagle Scout last night at the Boone Trails District boards!

Jason is the 78th scout in Troop 918's history to earn his Eagle.

We welcomed many of our newly-minted boy scouts at our Troop meeting on Tuesday, where they earned their Totin' Chip and Fireman Chip.

Parents got an introduction to the Troop, as well as our upcoming campouts.  If you were unable to attend, come on out next time!  Handout is attached.

Troop Elections were held Tuesday March 31.  The results are below.  These scouts will hold these positions for the next 6 months.  If a scout was unable to attend the elections and is still interested in a position, please talk to your Scoutmaster--there are still things you can do to help out the Troop!
