Need volunteers

All,
We are in need of a few volunteers to help with some upcoming events and items. Remember training is provided for all positions. Some of these positions are on-going and some are one-time events. Please let me know if you can help the Troop with some of these tasks.

Scouting for Food – March 31, 2007
This is a coordination role which includes organizing the Scouting for Food day, sending out crews on our routes, coordination with Committee Chair and patrols on the Scouting for Food Day. Also includes coordination of getting food to pantry, so a truck or SUV (or 2 smaller vehicles) will be needed. The coordinator also stays at Colony Bend Elementary on the morning of the 31st to receive and count the items collected.

Recruiting
We currently have a need for parents to help us stay connected to the Packs; some of our new parents would be particularly helpful. Currently we are discussing our upcoming recruiting events like Readyman, den chiefs, inviting packs to campouts, etc. and would welcome some new ideas.

Public Relations
Submit articles to the local media to promote the Troop. Articles will be on Courts of Honor, Eagle Scouts, summer camps, etc. There are copies of previous releases to use as templates. This is also a big help to our recruiting efforts.

May Court of Honor – May 20, 2007
Need a parent to secure a location for our May 2007 Court of Honor. This will be a family picnic, so we will be looking for a park with pavilion or somewhere close that we can have an outdoor Court of Honor and a picnic.

Court of Honor Support
We have a volunteer that is responsible for Courts of Honor; we need a volunteer to help the youth MCs prepare for the ceremony. You would work with the current volunteer (me!) for the first couple of Courts of Honor.

Health & Safety
Maintain the Health forms for the Troop and keep the over the counter medications in the Troop First Aid kit up to date. This could actually be split into 2 positions, one for forms and one for the first aid kit.

Please feel free to call or email me with questions or to volunteer for one of these positions.

Thank you for your support of Scouting.
