Greetings;
As shared in at the court of honor
Our Troop worked hard to work with our charter as we have for 75 years to offer a proper productive experience.
We have enjoyed multiple different activities and events yes unfortunately some have been canceled, changed and post dated over this very odd covid year but we pushed through when others did not
As numbers have been caped and protocol has been mandated again
I understand that many people may not agree with the mask mandate however
I thank you for your support and willingness to work with the church they have a special team working with the section that have developed a plan, this is something I would like to address
With rising numbers we will have another change we will be able to meet on church grounds however we will not be able to continue with indoor meetings we will not have to wear masks when outside but will only have access to the office and a bathroom. The office use will be available in rotation .
I am praying that this recent change will be short lived ( we are looking at October) with 100 people coming together from multiple different counties and school district we we look at the uptick in covid cases and it’s currently bad.
The urgent cares are overwhelmed with testing and if we do not work together taking small steps to stop the spreading of this virus we could have to go back to even more restrictions .
Let’s work together to address this situation positively noting that we have a meeting place that supports and encourages our progress and has done so throughout multiple different changes, The church is letting us use their building as our own; let’s proceed accordingly teaching our youth understanding and respect and appreciation while offering grace to a difficult situation while wearing a mask. Note :The meeting policy until October 1, 2021, or longer if covid surge continues.
Effective immediately, we are not allowed to use any of the church meeting rooms for Meetings Troop 48 will overcome and adapt additional information will be provided.
Note We can use the restrooms by the Scout closet but no other interior spaces. Adult leaders can enter the Jones Building to get supplies but should not stay inside.
However, we can continue to use any and all church grounds for outdoor meetings and they are leaving the vans outside the awning so we can use that space when it rains.
For our planned Pack meeting and new parent intro,For Pack 348 is on 8/31, anyone who can be available to help please do so. We need to support or Scouting family
The plan is we can convert to an outdoor meeting and spread out in the parking lot and/or under the awning. We can definitely plan some fun outdoor activities like softball, kickball and soccer
Thanks for all of your leadership and patience as we respond to this complicated situation.
We got this !!!
