[Bsa-troop85] Neosho Merit Badge Fair on Saturday, February 1

[Lindsey Family]

To those planning to attend the Neosho merit badge fair tomorrow in Tahlequah:

We will leave from the St James Church parking lot at 6:20 am sharp tomorrow morning.  Scouts should wear their uniform - shirt and pants - neckerchief not required.  Scouts should bring their merit badge books (if they have them), pens/pencils, and paper for taking notes - all in a backpack (or something else) so they can each keep up with their own belongings.  Dress warm and remember lunch is provided.

The list of those I know of planning to attend is as follows:
Max Trost
Garrison Marsh
Dylan Hurt (and Russell - driver)
Ryan Lindsey (and Jason - driver)
Zac Lewallen (and Kathy will meet us there)
John Musshafen (and Karen will meet us there)
Charlie Chaffin (and Tammy will meet us there)
Trey Snellings (and Kip will meet us there)

Russell - if this list ends up being correct and you don't want to drive, you can either ride with me or even stay home since I can carry the four boys.

Please let me know if you are planning to attend the merit badge fair and your name is not on the list above.  If your name is not on this list, then we won't know to be looking for you before we leave in the morning.  If you are no longer planning to attend, please kindly let me know that as well.

We should return to the Church parking lot by 6:15 Saturday evening and we will call parents on the way home to make sure they are waiting to pick up their Scouts. We will have been with the Scouts all day, so we would appreciate all parents making a timely pickup of their Scouts.

Thanks

Yours in Scouting

Jason Lindsey

      All,

      As discussed at the last few Monday meetings, the Neosho District merit badge fair is next Saturday, February 1.  Hopefully your Scouts have mentioned it, so if they are interested in going, please register at okscouts.org under the Neosho District.  You can also find a link through the council calendar on the site.

      Please let me know if you are registered so we will have enough adults and transportation for everyone.  So far I only know of Ryan Lindsey, Zac Lewallen, and Charlie Chaffin planning to attend.  Adults going include me, Kathy Lewallen and Tammy Chaffin (traveling separately).

      We will leave from the regular St James Church parking lot at 6:20 a.m. Saturday morning - don't be late since we have a lot of ground to cover.

      The Scouts should read the merit badge books before in order to be prepared for the classes.  You can try to borrow the books from the Troop library (books may be old) or you can purchase your own from the Scout Shop (43rd and Garnett).  Please be aware that some merit badges won't be completed at the fair - they will need to be completed by you at a later date.

      When you register, they will ask you to select a couple of alternate classes as well.  Therefore, we won't know exactly what classes the Scouts are in until we get there for final registation which starts at 7:45 Saturday morning.  That's why we need to be there early.  A lot of people will be trying to change or add classes that morning and it will be rather chaotic.

      Thanks

      Yours in Scouting

      Jason Lindsey
