Troop Website - Updated

Hi Troop 67 families,
I want to let you know that I've updated the website today. Our website is: http://www.troop67de.com/

Today's update includes:
1. Several important dates such as first troop meeting of fall season, first PLC, and first camping trip. These dates are right on the top of the home page for your convenience. The complete calendar will be published soon, but you can update your home calendar with these first dates for the new scouting season.
2. New eagle project workbook link. National BSA recently revised their mandatory eagle project workbook. Use this link to access the new workbook. Life scouts who began their proposal using the old workbook can follow through with the old version; however, new project proposals must use the newly revised workbook.
3. Scroll down toward the bottom of our home page and you will see our new BLOG link. This is an exciting new way that our adult leaders will be able to communicate with all members of Troop 67. Blog postings can be about camping trip reports, troop policy changes/clarifications, service project updates, calendar change alerts, etc., etc. Any time that we have something to announce to the group we can post it in the Blog. We will continue to send email blasts through Troopmaster Software when we want to confirm that every member has received important information. But the troop committee has been looking for a way to communicate more generally with our members. Hopefully this new blog will be an effective communication tool for us.

Adult leaders who want to learn how to create a Blog 67 posting should attend the next troop committee meeting. Or see our Webmaster Dean Coffin.

***Important -- you can sign up to get email alerts when a new Blog posting has been published. Here's how to enroll for this news feed service: go to our Blog (see link on website, or click here:http://wilmingtontroop67news.blogspot.com/ ). Look up in the top right corner area to submit your email address. It's that easy. Now you are subscribed and will be notified when a new blog article is posted.

We're looking forward to a great new year of scouting!
