Troops 323 & 3323 Phoenix Arizona
Lucas led our scouts on November 7th in assembling backpacks for children entering foster care. The backpacks contained new clothes, school supplies, and other items they may need. Lucas had collected enough donations to assemble approximately 100 backpacks! Afterward, they were awarded donuts and snacks for their contribution.
Our scouts celebrated Halloween with a fun meeting at the park on October 28! They participated in both a pumpkin carving and costume contest. We were happy to welcome guests and hand out candy and avocados to our winners. Great job, scouts!
Scouts from troop 323 and Troop 3323 staged leadership training on Saturday, October 4th, and helped our scouts learn about effective leadership. Following their own ILST training, our senior youth leaders taught the lessons by themselves, which included lots of games, pizza, and fun.
On October 16-18, more than 20 scouts from our troop went to Camp Geronimo to participate in West-O-Ree, which was themed around midevil times this year! We participated in eight challenges – cooking, constructing a ladder, making skits, rifle shooting, axe throwing, an escape room, and first aid . After all the challenges, we attended the closing campfire (which was held indoors this year due to rain), where the staff and other troops announced the winners, performed skits, and handed out prizes. Our troop also performed a skit at the closing.
Our scouts cleaned up All Saints Lutheran Church on October 10, as it is where we have our meetings. They worked together to pick up trash, cut branches, pull weeds, clean windows/doors, and prep the Communion bread ingredients. They were rewarded for their efforts with appreciation and donuts.
