Key Items for this month
Wapiti Achieved it’s Friends of Scouting Goal! Thank you to all families and leaders in Wapiti for your support, commitment and dedication to Scouting. By achieving our part in Friends of Scouting, we have made it possible for Scouting to thrive not only in Wapiti but around the Council.
District Dessert June 9th! Come to the Wapiti District Dessert June 9th at 7pm at the Tigard LDS Church. This is the same date and location as Roundtable. Your Wapiti District Committee would like to recognize each Pack, Troop, Team, and Crew for their outstanding programs and service this past year. There is no cost and your whole unit committee is invited.
Project Tiger! What if we were able to get Tiger leaders Identified and trained before the Fall. What if we were able to have a program for now Kindergarteners over the summer? How can we best identify and recruit Kindergarteners in the Spring? We seem to have figured out answers to all these questions. New Tiger leaders and parents are joining this Spring? Our goal has been 6 Tigers and 2 adult leaders per pack. May 31st, from 6:30pm to 8pm at Big Al’s on Borland Rd in Beaverton, we will celebrate our efforts. Pizza, Sodas game tokens will be provided to those who have taken leadership in this effort.
In 2010 the Boy Scouts of America Launched a website to help people find Scouting in their area. Every unit in the Wapiti District has been listed on this site. Currently, if someone is interested in joining your unit, they can only communicate with the council office. Each unit has been asked to log into your MyScouting.org account and update your unit’s BeAScout information. This way people who are interested in your unit can contact you directly.
Website change for reporting Service Hours. If you have tried logging on to Good Turn for America you will notice you are now being redirected to a Journey to Excellence Web Site. On the right side of the JTE page is a link to log your service hours. The actual link is https://scoutnet.scouting.org/gtfa/ui/security/login.aspx. All the log in info and reporting is the same after you go to this page. Please log in and submit your hours.
All Leaders update your MyScouting.org profile. Everyone was required to go online and create a MyScouting account to complete your youth protection. Now is the time to have all leaders update their MyScouting profile with your membership ID number. This will ensure that all your online training gets recorded on Scoutnet. Also, Each unit should update your BeAScout information on www.MyScouting.org. BeAScout directs people interested in joining Scouting directly to you.
