Indian Path Community Hospital in partnership with Niswonger Children’s Hospital Sponsors Kids Central during Fun Fest July 17th from 9:30a-3:30p and July 18th from 12:30p – 5p. Indian Path has four activities set up, such as an obstacle course, hula hoop, long jump, and corn hole, for kids to complete in order to receive a prize. We are encouraging children to get outside and play. The volunteers would help the kids with the activities and encourage the kids to participate and even show them how to do the activity. I will provide a free Fun Fest t-shirt while supplies last, drinks all day both days and lunch on Monday. We would love to have anyone interested to come help. It is hot but we have fun! Anyone interested can contact me on my mobile 423-863-6711 or office 423-857-7048 or email Tessa.malone2@balladhealth.org.

Troop 48 has a HP F4440 InkJet printer which is down to its last HP60 black ink cartridge. If you have any surplus, the troop could use – otherwise will be retiring this device to just continue with the Brother laser printer.
WARNING TO ADULT LEADERS – YOUTH PROTECTION TRAINING
Please note there is no guaranteed grace period once your YPT has expired after two years, thus you’re at risk of being dropped from the National BSA roster which then requires a new adult leader application – along with all annual fees, including a $25 new member. Notices are automatically sent by BSA starting 90 days prior to the expiration. There have been five Troop 48 adult leaders dropped because of failure to take action. Fortunately, the first three have rejoined with current training and paperwork. Troop 48 has a desktop and laptop computer which can be used on a Tuesday night to complete this training.
