Troop 46 - 11/26/2024 Meeting

Greetings Troop 46 Scouts, Parents and Leaders,

With Thanksgiving coming up on 11/28, we've decided to cancel the troop meeting on 11/26/2024.
Please take time to enjoy your family and reflect on the things you have to be thankful for. There are probably more than you think...

Be safe and have a Happy Thanksgiving!

Yours in Scouting,

Troop 46 - Service Project 11/09/2024

Greeting Troop 46 Scouts, Parents, and Leaders,

We have a service project coming up on Saturday, November 9th from 9:00 am to 12:00 pm at the Matthew Veterans Memorial Park inside Stumptown Park in downtown Matthews.
We'll be doing some weeding, picking up a little trash, and spreading some mulch to make the Veterans Memorial area look nice just in time for Veterans Day (11/11/24).

I'll be providing doughnuts, water, and coffee (for adults)

Troop 46 - Great Pumpkin! Stakeout

Greetings Troop 46 Scouts, Parents, and Leaders,

Troop 46 will have its second annual overnight campout, the Great Pumpkin! Stakeout at Matthews Presbyterian Church on Saturday, October 19, 2024.
All patrols will be preparing a Jack-O-Lantern for an auction at the Patch 46 Pumpkin Patch and will help provide Pumpkin cleaning for customers that request it.

Please plan on arriving at 12:00 pm. The patrols should plan on:
- Preparing dinner on Saturday night at our campsite. Creativity for this meal is highly encouraged. Patrol boxes and camp kitchens will be available.
- A quick breakfast (breakfast bars, Pop Tarts, etc.).
- We need to break camp and have everything put away by 9:00 am Sunday morning.

This is a great opportunity for community exposure for Scouting at Matthews Presbyterian Church!
