On Monday, July 14th, Dylan Turner led a campfire program for Troop 60 in his backyard. The program included skits, a weather emergency drill, campfire stories and an award ceremony recognizing Nathan Thomson for providing first aid to crash victims during summer camp in June.
The campfire program was completed successfully earning Dylan his Communications merit badge.
Be prepared to attend the next Monday Night meeting at Frank Turner’s house located at 2657 S. 750 W., Farmland, Indiana on July 14th at 6:30pm. Dylan needs to run a campfire program for his communications merit badge and this meeting will fulfill that requirement.
Patrols will need to have a skit ready for the evening. Bring bug spray. See you there!
Though 14-year-old Aaron Eilerts is gone, the victim of a devastating tornado last month, his legacy lives on today at Wright Medical Center.
Patients there enjoy the comforts of brightly-colored pillowcases created by Eilerts as part of his Eagle Scout project.
The Boy Scouts are getting a new look – a new toned-down Class A uniform made of forest green and khaki high-performance fabrics, similar to what they’d pick out at REI or Dick’s Sporting Goods. (And guys, the new baseball cap – green all the way around with a single Scout emblem, a fleur-de-lis, monochromatically embroidered – you’ll want to wear everywhere).
We need help!
Troop 60 will be running the concession stand at the Farmland Conservation Club this weekend (May 24th-25th) for the Archery Shoot. We need volunteers to help us man the booth Saturday (7am-11am or 11am-3pm) and Sunday (7am-11am or 11am-3pm). Contact Frank or Steve to sign up!
There will be a Summer Camp meeting for all the parents of the boys going to Ransburg on Monday, June 2nd. It will take place from 7:30-8pm. If you cannot make it, please contact Steve O. at 765-468-8835 ASAP!
Some of the things that happened at the regular Monday night Troop 60 meeting:
Get involved! Regular meetings happen every Monday unless there is a holiday or after a camp-out weekend. We could always use the help! 
Spring Camporee is this Friday, Saturday and Sunday! May 2nd-4th. Be sure to be at Camp Redwing with $20 by at least 5pm this Friday!!!
New Patrol: The Raiders! Troop 60 would like to welcome our newest patrol “The Raiders” into the troop. So far, the new patrol is comprised of 3 official Boy Scouts and one Webelos Scout (who will be a Boy Scout in one month). The boys are from Monroe Central and recently crossed over.
Troop 60 raised over $500 through our “Dutch Mill Bulbs” fundraiser recently. The money earned will go towards summer camp and other camp fees throughout the summer. Great job on this fast fundraiser!
FYI - The bulbs will be in mid-May for distribution.
