Reminder for the next Parent Committee meeting - Monday, Dec. 7 at 6:00 pm - by zoom. Find the link on the calendar details on TeamSnap.
All troop parents are encouraged to join in for the meeting to help provide the structure for the troops. You don't have to have a formal position to join us and contribute!
Received from the Scoutbook User Advisory Council:
Scoutbook moved to a new domain name - scoutbook.scouting.org last week. Please update your bookmarks accordingly if you use them to access Scoutbook. Users who installed the Scoutbook Feature Assistant Extension will need to manually update the extension or accept new permissions due to this domain change.
Note: It MAY be necessary to clear your browser cache/history to remove old links in order to access Scoutbook via the new login site.
We will keep posting announcements here for our Sunday eBlast, but all Calendar and meeting details, like locations or zoom links will be updated on TeamSnap. Please make sure you are checking regularly and have downloaded the app. It will be worth your time to link the TeamSnap calendar to your personal digital calendar if you use one - do this for each patrol if you have more than one scout. You may also want to hide the t444.org calendar if you had previously synced to it in order to avoid confusion as we are not updating the website calendar right now.
Contact Mr. Melson, [email protected], if you have any questions or need help getting onto the tool. See you there!
1. You must use the leader username & login (included in video) to have access to add content. The leader login is the same for the Girls' Troop - be sure to add the same content to their site if the information also applies to them.
2. New content will be included in the Sunday morning e-blast if you add it by Saturday night. Any announcements added after the e-blast goes out on Sunday will be in the following Sunday's e-blast.
3. We can minimize the number of emails the troop sends and help our troop scouts and parents have all the information they need when we provide the information in the weekly e-blasts. Please try to communicate using the website newsletter as much as possible
4. To update the troop calendar, we are not using the website any longer. Please add event details to TeamSnap only and try to have updates submitted more than 3 days in advance so that the reminder messages from TeamSnap include all the information the troop needs (links to meetings, locations, what to expect).
Thank you to all scouts and adults who assisted with our Webelo 2 visit night last week! It went very well! We had 27 Webelo boys and girls attend from 5 different area packs.
If you know of other friends or contacts who are interested in learning about joining our troop, please connect them with Katrina Gray, our membership chair. ([email protected]) She will find a time to host them at one of our future meetings.
We also have a Virtual Information session planned for Tuesday, December 8th at 7:00 pm. Contact Katrina to get the link if you know of someone interested in attending. Keep sharing with your cub scout friends how much you enjoy being a part of our Troop!
