Eagle Project Presentation
Dan R.
Presented his Eagle project. He is making Osprey nesting boxes,
using a new design. The project was approved, but Dan was warned to
make sure he had permission from all parties involved to use the suggested
site, and there were some corrections that needed to be completed before
the presentation at the Roundtable. Dan will bring these changes to
Angie Bisping.

T-shirt Presentation
Dennis
Doffing has found an alternative to our normal cotton t-shirts. The
poly shirts (which would wick off water) would be slightly higher than the
cotton shirts, but more useful for camping. Dennis will also check
into the price of water bottles.

Scoutmaster's Report
A letter to
parents should be sent out discussing the changing of the meeting
place. We will begin meeting at St. John's in January. Maybe we
can have a parent meeting then. We might be able to make it a social
event.

Open Discussion/Closing
There is a new
council patch. Should we purchase these for the adults? Do we
need to increase fees because we now need to pay for merit badges? We
will discuss this next meeting. There was a discussion about the
electronics policy. It was decided that a new line should be added to
Troop 494 rules, allowing PLC to allow electronics for campouts with the
permission of the scoutmaster.
