Arapaho UMC’s first load of pumpkins arrive on Sat, Oct 2nd and we need lots of help! 

Many in our congregation are unable to participate in the unloading again this year, and scouts have always been so important on unload days.

The unloading days are a great opportunity to:

1. Show thanks and provide needed help to our sponsoring organization (A Scout is helpful)
2. Earn service hours towards Scout advancement

The Pumpkin Patch is a wonderful community experience and proceeds are split between:

• The farmers of the Navajo Nation in New Mexico (yes, even our pumpkin patch has a social justice cause)
• Our Missions Fund supporting local and global ministries

The unloading process will be the same as last year which will increase safety for volunteers and guests:

• A forklift will unload boxes of pumpkins from the truck (boxes will be spaced to allow for social distancing).
• Small groups can easily remove pumpkins from the large boxes and place them throughout our yard. 
• Please bring masks, water, gloves, and any wagons and/or wheelbarrows you have.

Scouts and families are invited to come to AUMC at 10 a.m. on Oct 2nd and the second delivery will be 10 a.m. on Oct 16th. 

We would love to have as many Troop 444 helpers as possible! 

Sign up for a shift below:

Popcorn brochures were handed out to scouts in both T444B and T444G at last Monday night's meeting. If your scout would like to participate, but did not pick up an information sheet, please reach out to Amanda Shiner at 972-804-3023. 

Hi everyone! Now that we have our calendar set and lots of exciting things planned for both troops, we want to tell you all about it, answer questions and get volunteers to help where you can.  We will meet at Arapaho United Methodist Church 7:30-8:30pm in the Fellowship Hall during the troop meetings.  If you can't attend, be sure to sync your calendar for all our events and reach out to let us know if you have questions and how you can help.  Thanks, Troop 444 Committee

Welcome to another great year of scouting in Troop 444B/G!

Our shared troop committee will hold its first meeting of the year on Sunday, August 22 at 8pm via Zoom (login details will be added to the calendar entry shortly). We plan to alternate Zoom vs. in-person meetings each month this year, based on feedback from adult leaders.
