THIS THURSDAY!! - 6/8 -
Changes in Scouting are coming up - LiveScan is required for Campouts and many future activities
|
|
|
|
|
Beginning September 1, 2023 if you want to spend a night with the Troop you must be registered in scouts, take YPT (Youth Protection Training), complete CA Mandated Youth Protection training, and have had a LiveScan. This is the result of the settlement of the National Lawsuit.
|
To facilitate the LiveScan fingerprinting part of this, we have arranged for a company to do it at the next Round Table on June 8 at Swiss Park Grill starting at 5:30 until 7:30. This will be a non-uniform social event to celebrate the completed scouting year and to network in person. If you have not had a LiveScan done for Scouts, please take this opportunity to have it done on June 8. That gives you an option to participate in a camping trip down the road as LiveScan is a one-time requirement. We have arranged for the lowest price anywhere of $35 (cash or check only on June 8). Please sign up for the live scan by clicking on this link.
|
We need to have sufficient sign-ups for the company to attend. Please sign up NOW! For questions, please post in Slack or contact Skip Phair.
