Troop 483 Weekly Update
This Week
Scoutmaster Update
Hi Scouts!
We had a few updates that you need to be aware of. Mostly the dessert assignments for the 70th banquet coming up. With Labor Day on Monday, we figured we would get this out today. Please don’t’ forget to register so we have enough food.
Enjoy your holiday weekend and we will see you all in Parish Hall on September 9th in Class A.
Star and Life Scouts don't forget Life to Eagle on Tuesday. Please arrive early to help set-up at 6:40 PM.
RECHARTER AND REGISTRATION IS GOING ON NOW
It's time to renew your registration, and most of our scouts and adult leaders have a registration expiration date of 9/30/24. This year, there's a new National process for registration, but our troop will still collect the registration fees and process everyone at the end of September. Please review the attached registration link for specific instructions.
What does it mean for you if you have a 9/30/24 expiration date?
- You should have received an email from National explaining your registration expiration. Please ensure there is a current email attached to your scout's account in my.scouting.org. Every scout has an account and member ID number. r.
- The Troop will collect your registration payment of $220 ($170 BSA fees + $50 Troop dues) for October 2024- September 2025. Payment deadline 9/15/24.
- The Troop will process registration for everyone expiring. If you already processed your registration based on the National letter, no problem. Please let me know, so I can cross-reference your registration to my reports. You will still need to make the $50 troop payment directly to the troop.
- Complete the Troop's survey for both the scout and the adults. Deadline 9/15/24
- Adult leaders - make sure your YPT is current.
If your registration has not yet expired we are still asking you to complete the Troop's survey for each scout and adult and make the Troop due payment of $50. Deadline is 9/15/24.
We welcome you back to another fun-filled scouting year, and we look forward to working with the scouts through their scouting journey. It's the support of all our parents, family members, and friends that Troop 483 is continuing to guide some amazing young men for 70 years.

RELIGIOUS EMBLEM AWARD INFORMATION
Dear Scouts and parents,
The twelfth point of our Scout law is “a Scout is reverent”. Also, in our Scout oath we proclaim we will do our “duty to God…”.
Did you know that a Scout can earn special awards for studying their own religion. This is available for nearly all religions and at all levels of Scouting. For Boy Scouts it’s typically one level in junior high and one level in high school. Some faiths also have awards for adults.
I would like to encourage all parents and Scouts to consider working towards these special awards. Many of them are starting up at this time of the year because it tends to coincide with the start of school. If I can help you in anyway, finding a counselor for your faith or if you need more information, please reach out to me at JohnP641@aol.com and I will do my best to guide you.
Below I have included a link to scouting.org which tells you about all of the different religious emblem awards you can earn for all the faiths.

Yours in God, and in Scouting,
John Pooley
