The KABOOM show from the Orlando Science Center has been added to the Scout Show line up of entertainment and vendors. The KABOOM show is a show where things get blown up in a science kind of way. The scouts that have seen the show really like it.
Important Scout Show Links:
Camping Reservation Form (For your family or unit) (Troop 804 has no plans to camp there at this time.)
Special Food Deals from Woody’s BBQ that you can order as a unit or family
Booth Form (If your unit has not filled out a form yet) (I have signed the troop and the pack up for the museum exhibits. I hope we can be side-by-side. Be looking for any other old stuff we can show off. It will cost us 10% of our commission on coupon sales if we do not go.)
Council Pinewood Derby Registration Form ( Will be held at Scout Show and participants must pre register)
UCF Scout Day Registration form ( Held right after Scout Show 4:00pm)
All the links and even more Scout Show info can be found at www.scoutshow.cflscouting.org
Scout Show commercial that will be airing on Bright House

Unfortunately, the DeLand day camp has been canceled. There is the option of attending the Deltona day camp, which is scheduled to take place the week before DeLand’s was to take place (which would be 6/21/2010 – 6/25/2010). I do not know where this will be held, and it’s not even showing up on either the district or the council calendars.
There are a few cub scout camps going on at La-No-Che this spring:
Spring to Spring, 4/9/2010-4/11/2010
Fun With Son, 4/16/2010-4/18/2010
I see no sign up sheets or information at either website about these either.
How about holding our music-themed family camp-out on 5/28/2010-5/30/2010? Mr. Sam will be in Alaska at that time. Are there any other conflicts?
Let’s discuss and plan in the comments.

The time for the 1910 Tuscarora Spring Camp-O-Ree finally arrived! Yes, you read that year correctly. In celebration of 100 years of scouting in the USA, Tuscarora District used 1910 as the theme for this year’s spring camp-o-ree. The fall camp-o-ree will have a futuristic theme, and the two patches will fit together making a complete unit.

Boy Scouts, here are a few pictures of London Bridge to consider for our gateway project. What is it going to take to build this thing in the next ten days? I have left the pictures full-sized, so if you click on them, you can see more detail.
By the way, it’s actually called “The London Tower Bridge.”

On March 8, 2010 Troop 804 gathered at Glenwood Presbyterian Church as always on Monday nights. Meetings are normally pretty ordinary and straight forward; we open with the Pledge of Allegiance, Scout Oath and Law, and the Cub Scout Promise. On this night however, things were a bit different.
