Remember when you we’re an 11 years old Webelos looking for a Boys Scout Troop, a little nervous visiting all those big roudy guys?  Well, it’s Webelos season.  We are currently having many young scouts looking for a new scout home.  Please greet them and show them how awesome and friendly Troop 88 is.

It’s Arrow of Light Season.  Our troop has always been known for having the biggest and best Welcoming Crossover Team in Parker.  It’s time to regroup.  Look for e-mails of upcoming Crossover dates!

Medical Forms

The Palmer Lake Backpack trip is fast approaching and I need a little information from all of you going.

1st – I need a current Class 1 Medical Form for all participants. This is the one with ONLY a parent’s signature. I need this for both Scouts and Adults.

NOTE: I am trying to locate the Medical Forms book so we do not need to keep asking again for each activity. If anyone knows where the book is I would appreciate a call.

2nd – For adults I need to complete a Trip Request form with the Boy Scouts so we can be covered by the BSA insurance on our trip. This means I need the Name and Driver’s License number, Auto Insurance Company and parameters of coverage: 90k, 300k, 100k Etc….

If you are uncomfortable sending me this info via email please give me a call this weekend. I need to have enough information to show we have enough cars to transport all the kids safely.

Thanks – Brad Johnston
