Grimes Canoe Base Outing

Because of recent flooding in the Middle Tennessee area, the scouts have decided to reschedule the Grimes canoe trip, in order to help their family and friends recover from the storms.

 

Memorial Day Flag Placement at the National Cemetery

 

 

Flag

The Middle Tennessee Council, Boy Scouts of America, invites you to attend the Annual Memorial Day Flag Placement at the National Cemetery, in Madison. This is just one of many ways the Scouts can show their patriotism and citizenship for our Country's Veterans. This tradition was started approximately 40 years ago, and still continues to grow!

 

Come Join Us!!!

Just A Reminder

If the troop has not received your new medical form, please take a few minutes to provide us with this important information.  Parents are to complete Part A and Part C.  Part B is to be done by your health-care provider for those participating in scout activities longer than 72 hours (i.e. summer camp) or any high adventure activity.  http://www.scouting.org/filestore/pdf/34605_Letter.pdf
