Four more down

Been a while since I've updated. In that time, Scoutmaster Bucky has not replied at all. But as the Advancement Coordinator, I'm just going to take the scout as trustworthy, and put the Environmental Science up on his sash.

As expected, Betsy took three of the boys (Greg, Kyle and Sander) through the last requirements of Emergency Preparedness, so toss that up on his sash as well. In the interim, he finished up Energy, and got approved by email from the counselor.

Sue Wilke was kind enough to drive four boys (Mike W., Sander, Tyler, and Tristen from Troop 294) up for the Rifle Shooting. The boys were ready, and with just a bit of work, they all succeeded in getting it done!

Last weekend, Sander jumped (or maybe was pushed a little) into doing one more Scoutmaster Bucky opportunity- an easy one, really: Golf! He's already played a few rounds with my uncle Steve, so it was just a little bit of prep, and a fun day (even if it did rain, and hail, and he lost his pitching wedge as a result) later, he's got that one in the books as well.

And what's more, last night he brought out the bugle and played three more of the calls. He's almost halfway through the calls. No rush, mind you, but the more off his to-do list, the better. Carpentry has been on hold- he hates to toenail, and really, the weather has been sucky. He'll have that done before summer camp, though, to be sure.
