Program Theme for the month of May is Leadership. SPL has planned a good meeting, with Inititive Games and Scout Skill activties from D.E.L.T.A. handbook. (Developing Ethical Leaders Through Action).
Phoenix Patrol (new patrol) had planned a seperate patrol meeting for tonight at a local pool for the purpose of working on swimming skills.
I infomed Blazing Lion and Gladiator patrols that they are also allowed and are encouraged to plan seperate patrol meeting, they just needed to present to the SPL a plan which is to include: Where they are going to meet; what are their goals; and what scout skills, merit badge work or patrol business will be accomplished during the meeting. They also must have a BSA Trained Leader and other adult supervision attending. (The SPL and PLC will review their plan and approve/disapprove or recommend changes after convering with me.)
I am willing to set aside one Monday a month to patrol meeting if all the patrols get on board with this idea. Patrol Leaders its up to you, this is your opportunity to run your own meeting, set patrol goals, and provide leadership to your patrol.
Strong patrols make for a strong troop.
The Scoutmaster.
