Committee Meeting
Minutes
Tuesday, September 21, 2004
In attendance: Dave Filpus, Tom Hock, Alfred Avery, George
Painter, Wendy Painter, Lisa Ripperton, John Risk, Dave Scocca.
Prior month minutes: The May 2004 minutes were approved. All prior
minutes are posted on the web site. If you have any changes, please let
Dave Filpus know as we do want these notes to be as accurate as
possible. If you e-mail directly to the web site, Dave Filpus will
receive the corrections.
A new recording secretary is still needed. Dave Scocca is taking
the minutes this month.
Treasurer's Report: We have a current balance of $5009.84.
This is before we have received any dues ($60 per Scout), and before
paying BSA rechartering fees. We would like to encourage dues to
be paid before the October 10 outing.
Schedule and trips: We discussed the outing schedule for the
year. Mount Rogers trip has been moved to the weekend of December
4-5. The canoe trip will be in the spring, with Shenandoah in
October and a Vertical Edge trip in February or March.
The Shenandoah National Park trip will be October 9-10, an 8.7 mile
backpacking trip on a new route.
Uniforms: We are looking for a new uniform coordinator.
Advancement: Wendy reported that we are alternating work on
communications and personal management, hoping to finish them by the
end of the fall. For Personal Management, there will be a visit
to the Estes Drive Wachovia this coming Saturday at 10AM.
Recruiting: There were seven Webelos who visited the Webelos
campout this month. We will have an open house for second-year
Webelos during the troop meeting on Tuesday, February 8th. Wayne
Vandenburg will take flyers to Roundtable and will try to visit some
other Webelos Dens.
Rosters: Updated rosters were distributed.
New Business: no other new business
Please join us at the next Committee Meeting scheduled for October 12.
