August Newsletter - Roundtable Thursday 7pm

by Lone Star District - Longhorn Council, BSA

[cid:983b44c6-eaa2-4636-8f9d-ccff7245e380] Lone Star District News See you This Thursday August 11th for Roundtable and Ice Cream Social! Calling all Cub Scout Leaders! This month's Roundtable is focused on successful membership campaigns. If you are a Cubmaster, Den Leader, Committee Member for a Cub Scout Pack, you need to come!! Plus, did I mention we will have Ice Cream? We will also have a recycled raingutter regatta as a gathering activity. We will meet in person (no virtual meeting this month) at 7PM at: Lighthouse Fellowship 7200 Robertson Rd, Fort Worth, TX 76135 New Field Director As many of you know, our District Executive Chris Bankus resigned to pursue an opportunity overseas. The council is working on hiring a replacement, but in the mean time the Field Director for our service area Ryan Thompson is filling in as DE. He has been in contact with many of the units, but you'll have a chance to meet him in person at Roundtable and hear the membership plans for the District. IOLS/BALOO September Attached is the flier for IOLS/BALOO training September 30th at Camp Holland. Having a BALOO trained leader on-site is required for a Cub Scout family campout, and IOLS is required to be position trained for Assistant Scoutmaster and Scoutmaster. You Scouts deserve a trained leader, and this is the perfect opportunity to get this great training close by in Weatherford. Registration is here: https://scoutingevent.com/662-SF_IOLS Popcorn It's popcorn season!

YPT Changes In 2021, the Longhorn Council adopted a policy that requires all registered adult leaders to complete Youth Protection Training on an annual basis. If any adult leader has a YPT certification that is set to expire in 2022, they must complete this training as soon as possible. Adult leaders with expiring YPT will have their BSA membership suspended on the first day of the month that their YPT is set to expire. For example, an adult whose YPT expires on August 15th will have their membership suspended on August 1st. You can check your YPT status by visiting my.scouting.org<https://click.icptrack.com/icp/relay.php?r=1097291604&msgid=32070399&act=56…>. They Key 3 of each Scouting unit can also check the status of their leaders by visiting my.scouting.org<https://click.icptrack.com/icp/relay.php?r=1097291604&msgid=32070399&act=56…> and navigating to the Training Manager. If an adult leader has their membership suspended, they cannot participate in any Scouting activities. Much Much More at Roundtable With Back to School in full swing and the beginning of the 2022-2023 program year, there are tons of things going on that are important and will be helpful for your unit. Come have some Ice Cream with us and find out all about it! Yours in Scouting, Tom Kisner Lone Star District Commissioner kisner(a)live.com - 682-777-8557
