Msgr. Rich,
OUCH!   Yes, I did not turn it off last night and forgot to ask others to do so.
We will be more careful.

Thanks!

A reminder to Tuesday night Scout meeting personnel: please turn off air conditioning when leaving,  You can hear it running both inside and outside.  A Scout is Thrifty...let's keep needless parish costs at a minimum.  Thanks, Msgr.

Hi Folks!

First I would like to thank Mrs. Miller for taking the time to run this year's

Tricky Tray Fundraiser.  This is an important element in supporting the program

for our boys.  Like Mrs. Miller, this year Nancy and I will find ourselves

without a son in the Troop.  I am planning to remain as Scoutmaster per the

wishes of the Scoutmaster Corps, Troop Committee and parents, but we really need

parents to step up and to get involved in the fundraising.  It is particularly

important to have several individuals work with Carolyn Miller this year in

order to be able to handle all the different tasks related to this event next

year.  Carolyn is a great mentor and a hoot to be around while working on this

effort, so you will be up for an enjoyable experience, that hopefully, you can

pass along in future years.  Another key point is that Mrs. Diana Valencia is

going to be seeing her son "age out" of the Troop in the next year or so, so her

fundraising efforts need to be backfilled as well.  Over the last five or so

years, these two ladies and Mrs. Rose Marie Rossmann have raised most of the

money that has allowed this Troop to grow and GO!.  We need to continue that

momentum through the transfer of knowledge, skill , enthusiasm and energy.

Please consider that as we progress into the fall.

Yours in Scouting!

Hi Scout Parents

This is just an update of the Tricky Tray that is planned for Saturday,

October 25. Just a side note, I am only running the event this year, next

year it will go back to the Troop parents. Yes, I know Justin is a Badge

Counselor and not part of the Troop, but I am doing this for YOUR sons who

deserve every bit of the profit that comes out of it.

In the past we had between 250 and 300 prizes, not so this year...right now

we have 100 prizes. We can still have a successful fundraiser if we can get

the amount of prizes to 200. If anyone has new/unused items that they want

to donate toward the Tricky Tray I will wrap them and include your family

name. Bring them in at any Tuesday meeting and give them to Justin Miller.

Each level has a retail value:

Level 1: $25 to $49

Level 2: $50 to $99

Level 3: Over $100

There are no mega or grand prizes as of now. That would be a prize valued at

above $300.

You will receive raffle tickets according to the prize level you donate.

We also added a Pasta Dinner to the event. Chef Gordon and his crew will

prepare the dinner.  It will include: Pasta with Butter, Pasta with

Marinara, Salad and Soda/Water.

Scouts are free to attend and help at the event. The cost will be $15 per

person, $10 for children 10 and under.

Also, I gave Sammy some index cards that have pictures on them of

Cleaning/Organizing supplies.  If you are interested in donating to the

Cleaning/Organizing basket please choose one of those cards and donate that

item. I will assemble the basket and it will be from the Scouts.

If you know of anyone who can donate prizes, gift certificates, services,

etc. please ask them.  Justin will have donation letters with him at every

meeting or I can bring them to your house.

Please let me know if you can help. Remember, this is for your sons and they

deserve the best!

Thank you

Carolyn Miller
