Our last meeting (6/5) before the Summer break will be held at The CORE in Coppell from 4pm - 6pm. At this meeting we will celebrate the beginning of Summer with a pool party! The Troop will cover the entrance fee and will provide drinks, treats, and snacks.  Please wear your activity shirt and swim shorts and be ready to have some fun!

Very important: during this meeting we will also hold Troop elections for our next set of Scout leaders.  Please make every effort to attend so you can have a say on who will lead the Troop for the next six months. The troop will be filling the following leadership positions: Senior Patrol Leader, Assistant Senior Patrol Leader(s), General Instruction, Quartermaster, Patrol Leader (4), Librarian, Scribe, OA Representative, Historian, and Den Chief(s).
