Remarks: N/A
Description: I will be sending medical, educational supplies, and books to Kasisi Children’s Home, an orphanage in Zambia, Africa. For the past four decades, my grandfather has been donating to this orphanage in the honor of his father. I’ve always wanted to continue this tradition and thought my Eagle Project would be a great way to honor his legacy and support the organization.
On Day 1, we will go door-to-door around my neighborhood, passing out door hangers, and interacting with my neighbors, kindly asking them to purchase supplies and books from an Amazon wishlist. The door hanger will contain one QR code to the Amazon wishlist and one QR code to a video to learn more about the project. Here is the video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TripLJgZYm4
Scouts who participate will receive 6 service hours. Lunch will be provided. I will need 13 scouts and 7 adults for this phase of the project.
Please join me in helping the kids of Kasisi Children’s Home.

Remarks: “May the Oath Be With You”
Description: Dear Scouts and Parents,
Greetings!
We have just got the news that Camporee 2023 is being held this year on April 28th – 30th.
This event will be held in Rancho Los Mochos, Livermore. The theme for this year is “May the Oath Be With You”
Our Troop is hosting this event this year and we have already started the planning. We would like for all our scouts to join in this fun filled weekend for scouting activities. The event registration will soon be open on the troop website.
This event is always a lot of fun as Scouts get to participate in a variety of activities and they get many opportunities to develop their leadership skills, foster team-building through competition, build friendships, increase self-confidence and above all build their Scout spirit.
What is Camporee?
Camporee is typically a 2-night event organized by the Meridian District and is a fun weekend filled with skill and team building competitions, provides opportunities to build Patrol spirit, bond with Patrol mates/Scouts and meet other Scouts/Troops from our District. This event is not focused on requirements or advancement.
“A Camporee is many things—camping fun for youth, the thumping of hundreds of feet on the way to an evening campfire, and the blue smoke from fires cooking stew or ham and eggs. It’s the patter of rain on many tents at night. It’s the ripple of wind-blown flags in the morning sun. It’s catching the idea of teamwork in a patrol. It’s learning to carry out an order to help the team succeed.”
