Annual Chili Cook-off and Roundtable

Come join us Thursday (Dec. 12) for our December Roundtable.  This holiday fun will include not only a great chance to meet and talk with other adult leaders, but enjoy some incredible chili as well!  Our annual Chili Cook-off and toy drive will be the highlight of your week! 

Cook your favorite
chili and bring along a copy of your recipe (minus your name).  Bragging rights will be awarded to the top 3 chefs, so come showcase your talents for all to sample!  Also, we are encouraging everyone to bring a new, unwrapped toy for our annual Toys for Tots drive.  

We will meet at 7:00 pm at Transfiguration Lutheran Church in Cayce (1301 12th Street).  Be sure to tell your scouting friends - the more, the merrier! 

OA Chapter Meeting

Tschitanek Woakus will hold the monthly chapter meeting at 7pm this Thursday, Dec. 12, at Transfiguration Lutheran.  In addition to our normal chapter business, we will be participating in the District's annual Chili Cook-Off AND Toy Drive.  Please consider bringing a dessert and/or a new, unwrapped toy for a child if you so inclined.

Camp Update:

Over 400 campers have already registered, but very few from Chinquapin.

Let’s encourage all of our scouts attending camp outside of council and anyone interested to register as part of the Baden-Powell Patrol.  So many of our scouts have done this over the last two years and not only have they had a great time at Barstow, but they’ve made new friends from other units along the way!

 
Friends of Scouting

Please review your pack/troop calendar and determine a good night in Jan/Feb/March to schedule a Friends of Scouting presentation. For a little more on this, check this out.  Please contact our IWC Field Director Scott Hagler to schedule this!
Looking Ahead

Silver Beaver Nominations are due January 14, 2020.  If you know of someone deserving of this recognition, please nominate them using this form.

Monthly Award Recognition:     Beginning in January, we would love to recognize the hard work of the adult leaders in your units at our monthly Roundtables.  If you have leaders who have earned knots or awards and would like to recognize them in front of their peers, please email Chip Payne
and let him know.
