For those scouts that can't make this Friday (9/16) Personal Fitness Merit Badge session there will be a second opportunity on Sunday September 18th at 11:00AM. We will meet at the McKelvie running track. All scouts who started their programs in June, and followed the programs without interruption, are now eligible to take the final test - provided you have completed and documented your 12 week fitness program. This means you must have a completed worksheet! The worksheet should explain in detail what you did over the 12 week period. It should include exercises for strength (legs, arms, chest and stomach), cardiovascular endurance and flexibility. If you didn't include all three areas then you have not completed the merit badge 12 week fitness requirement.

Interested in amateur radio? Want to participate in an international Scouting event without the cost of a plane ticket? Then come to Scouting Museum at Camp Carpenter on October 15 from 9:00am to 4:30pm to participate in the 54th annual Jamboree on the Air! Ham radio operators and members of the American Radio Relay League will be on hand with equipment to get Scouts on the air and in touch with Scouts around the world while teaching about the many types and uses of amateur radio.
