Re: December Newsletter - Roundtable Thursday 7pm!

by chk500＠charter.net

Tom, Thank you for a very interesting newsletter. Here’s an item of news for you to share. I’m sponsoring the Carl King Eagle Scout Plaza of Honor at Worth Ranch. The unveiling and dedication ceremony is set for February 18, 2023, with the 25th as an alternate date in case of inclement weather. You and all of our Lone Star District Scouts and Scouters are welcome to attend. More details to follow. Your old friend in Scouting, Carl Sent from Windows Mail From: Thomas Kisner via Lone Star District Sent: ‎Wednesday‎, ‎December‎ ‎7‎, ‎2022 ‎10‎:‎16‎ ‎AM To: lonestar(a)lists.lonestar-lhc.org Cc: Thomas Kisner Lone Star District News See you This Thursday December 8th for Roundtable! Calling all Scout Leaders! This month's Roundtable has great information and training. Recharter form turn in!!! I'll have Christmas goodies and treats! We will meet in person at 7PM at: Lighthouse Fellowship 7200 Robertson Rd, Fort Worth, TX 76135 Charter Partner Agreement & JTE Turn-in! The date for on-time recharters for 2022 is December 15th. Jose will be on hand to accept signed Charter Agreements and Commissioners will be on-hand for Journey to Excellence form turn in. Login to https://advancements.scouting.org/ for recharter and remember to all adults must have taken YPT in 2022 (with an expiration date of 2024). Bring a patch or small scouting item for Cypriot Scout Troops 40 to this Thursday's Roundtable Greetings – Attend this month’s Lone Star District Roundtable in person and, if you bring a patch or some other small scout item to put in a shipment to Cyprus Troop 40, you will be entered into some door prizes of Troop 40 bling – two T-shirts and their Troop neckerchief and woggle. The troop wish to add US scouting patches to their patch wall (see below) In October, Lee Sperry was able to visit not one but two scout huts in Nicosia, Cyprus; Troops 40 and 76. At Troop 40, the scout leader was getting married that day so there was no meeting but Lee met two of the scout leaders who were doing some planning and was able to photo their scout hut. A typical Cypriot Scout Hut (note that every scout quartermaster seems to struggle keeping equipment organized) Also note the BSA patches (Ex: 50 miler) on their patch banners– I have the Troop’s mailing address and told them I would send some patches from our Council to add to their banners when I returned. Upon Troop 40s recommendation, Lee was then able to visit Troop 76 later that afternoon. The Troop was conducting their crossover ceremony where Scouts crossed over into Rovers (Venture/Explorer equivalent). Note like many overseas scouts, all three scouting levels (Cubs, Scouts, Rovers) meeting at the same time. Several of the Rovers Lee spoke with attended the World Jamboree held at Summit in 2018 and had fond memories of engaging with US scouts. See you tomorrow!!! Yours in Scouting, Tom Kisner District Commissioner Lone Star District
