Indoor Overnight Training

There is still time to register for the Indoor Overnight class. 

Date: Friday, September 29, 2017
6:30pm - 9:30pm
Trinity Lutheran Church, Lansdale

Register through GSEP. 

You need this training if you plan to take your troop on any overnight- at a museum, someone's house, etc.  It is also a pre-requirement for the out door overnight training.  You can take this training now and get your outdoor within the next year so that you won't have to try to get them both scheduled in the spring before you want to go camping.  The leaders do not have to be the troop camper.  Any adult who is registered with background clearance can take the training(s) and be the troops certified person.

Contact Alice with any questions.

NPSU Hurricane Harvey Relief Effort

In order to help the victims of Hurricane Harvey, we are collecting for the McKinney-Vento program in the Pasadena Independent School District.  The McKinney-Vento Program helps students in the district that are homeless, unaccompanied students, and migrant workers children.  The district usually has about 1800 students in this program that they work with in the school year and are expecting that number to double after Hurricane Harvey.  They are a donation based program and can only help when they have supplies.  We are collecting from their “Wish List”.  We will collect the items at the October 5th Service Unit Meeting.  If anyone has any questions please do not hesitate to contact Celestin.
