CALLING ALL TROOPS!!! This is an awesome opportunity for the able leadership of your troop’s Junior Leaders and Scouts to set the example and build interest among Webelos boys in our district to cross over into Boy Scouts. What better event for your troop to lead the way and show off your skills. The event roster is flexible to reflect what your PLC’s would like to show off.
Please let us know what activity or game your PLC would like to do for your troop event station. Games are very much appreciated as a way to teach a skill and have fun! Please provide your event information before the October Roundtable to Ralph Hadley, 512-981-9335,

Recently, the Boy Scouts of America announced important changes to its Youth Protection policies. The purpose of these changes is to increase awareness of this societal problem and to create even greater barriers to abuse than already exist today in Scouting.
Effective June 1, 2010:
- Youth Protection training is required for all BSA registered volunteers, regardless of their position.
- New leaders are required to take Youth Protection training before submitting an application for registration. The certificate of completion for this training must be submitted at the time the application is made and before volunteer service with youth begins.
- Youth Protection training must be taken every two years. If a volunteer's Youth Protection training record is not current at the time of recharter, the volunteer will not be reregistered.
To find out more about the Youth Protection policies of the Boy Scouts of America and how to help Scouting keep your family safe, see the Parent's Guide in any of the Cub Scouting or Boy Scouting handbooks, or go to http://www.scouting.org/Training/YouthProtection.aspx.
