Senior Patrol Leadership: Questions have been raised regarding SPL position in Troop…Who is the current SPL? Discussion followed and Scoutmaster confirmed that the current SPL is the newly elected youth member with the previous SPL acting in a mentoring role.

Summer Camp 2010: Last month, Mr. Urig made the following suggestion regarding Summer Camp:

In light of the "hazing" of the younger Scouts by the older Scouts last summer, Scouts will be assigned to bunks by Patrol and will remain grouped by Patrol throughout the week. This subject will be discussed amongst the Senior Leadership of the Troop at next PLC meeting.

Spring 2010 Mulch Sale: ongoing; mulch bags will be available by next week, as per Mr. Ramberger.

Concern was raised over the proposed split for fundraisers. As was decided by the Committee at meetings held in January 2010, February 2010 and March 2010, it stands that proceeds from all fundraisers be split as follows: 70% Scouts, 30% Troop. Some committee members feel strongly that the proceeds from the 2010 Mulch Sale should not be split between Scout and Troop, but should be 100% Scout. Further discussion took place with a decision eventually made by the Committee to "table the topic" until next month when the Fundraising Chair would request a Financial Report from the Treasurer in order for the Committee to create a "Troop Budget for 2010-2011" in order to determine future Troop financial needs.
