Fall Program Launch Picnic for Council

Date: 
Wednesday, August 20, 2014 - 17:00

A Unit representative or two are invited to our district's, Western Gate, picnic to help us with our 6-month plan at Allegany Fire Department,186 West Main St.
Allegany, NY.

From Carol Clark:

It's fast approaching, the new year with your Units (Troops & Venture Crews).  In order to provide a quality program for your Units this year, each Unit is requested to do a little homework for the upcoming year & send someone to represent your Troop at the annual Fall Western Gate Picnic.

I am sure most of you do some sort of Planning for your Units.  By completing these requests, as a thank you, your Unit will be invited to receive a 25% discount for either the Civil War Camporee ( this year it's in October)  or the Monster Mash Camporee.   

Both are Super Boy Scout / Venture Crew age crowd pleasers!!, & a great way to kick off your Units 2014-2015 Scout Program!

I have included the following links, and attachments to help you complete this goal:

The very 1st thing on the Council WEB Page is information about the Picnic!  But just in case you are having trouble downloading the information, I have included the download for you!  

Another good link for planning your Boy Scout Program:

Another good link for planning your Venture Crew Scout Program:

This is where I found the Budget form, the JTE Score Card & the JTE worksheet ( search "JTE" in upper right corner search window).  All of the requests for the Picnic are part of the JTE.

The Budget Worksheet should be a breeze.  Just enter the #'s and it is all calculated for you...

As far as your 6 months of planning goes,  most of you already have a printout  you hand out to your scouts & your Parents / Leaders. Simply attach a copy of that to the form.  No need to re-write it on the form.  There are calendar templates, they are old would need to update them, but I did find links to Boys Life with Calendar templates, maybe theirs are newer....
