Order of the Arrow Elections on March 29th

Posted by dkemp on Feb 25 2023 - 8:08pm

On March 29th we will hold our Order of the Arrow elections immediately before the March court of honor. We need at least 50% of the boys and 50% of the girls to hold a vote, so please make every effort to attend. For over 100 years, the Order of the Arrow (OA) has recognized Scouts and Scouters who best exemplify the Scout Oath and Law in their daily lives. This recognition provides encouragement for others to live these ideals as well.

The PLC is asking that all members of the OA wear their OA sash to the meetings in March, to let their fellow scouts know who is already a member.

Scout Sunday at Delmar Reformed Church is February 26th

Posted by dkemp on Feb 4 2023 - 9:10am

Sign up is now live for Scout Sunday at Delmar Reformed Church. Scout Sunday is an opportunity for the scouts to thank our chartering organization for all the support they give us. This year is special because it's our first year with our new chartering organization, the Delmar Reformed Church. I'm also looking for one scout from 75B and one from 75G to speak to the congregation about what scouting means to them. (This could count as a 3-minute speech for Public Speaking merit badge).

We will meet in the hallway at the top of the stairs by the main entrance. Then we'll go in as a group to sit down. Plan to arrive by 9:40. You can sign up at https://www.delmartroop75.org/node/5081. Thank you! (Mr. Kemp)
