Thanks to those who attended the weekend outing at Kootaga. Many advancement requirements were met and everyone had a lot of fun. Three Scouts are ready for board of reviews and one only needs a couple requirements to move two ranks. Tuesday Aug. 19 meeting we want all boys in FULL uniform at Cawley and Peoples funeral home at 408 Front Street at 7PM. This is in honor of Scott Clay, Kootaga Ranger and one of the early members of Troop 216. If you have questions please call me.

Switchback trousers are on sale till May 15, 2008!
BUY 1, GET ANOTHER 1 FREE!
This is only until May 15, 2008 at the Scout office in Parkersburg! Switchbacks are the Scout pants with legs that zip off to make shorts. They are a very nice lightweight pant and have cargo pockets. If you want to know what they look like then take a look at mine next meeting. If you only want one pair then team up with another Scout and you would both get 50% off. I like these pants a lot and highly recommend them! Click Here for a picture.

Today a past member of our Troop, Robert Sloter, and his family lost their house to a fire this morning. Luckily no one was in the house at the time so no one was hurt. He was a good friend of mine and a good person. Currently he is a recruiter for the National Guard and his wife is serving in Iraq in the Guard and they have a four year old son. Please keep them in your thoughts and prayers.
