URGENTLY NEEDED:  First Aid Merit Badge Counselor.  If you have any interest, please complete a Merit Badge Counselor Application and return it to the Advancement Committee in the Committee Room.

 

Please contact Debra Stockton @ dstockto@bellsouth.net if you would like to get involved and for more information on the positions listed below.

 

 

Troop Treasurer:  Do you like spending someone elses money?  Then this position is for YOU.   Contact Mike McKenzie if you are interested at macmck@bellsouth.net.   Help make a difference in our Scouts and volunteer.  It will surprise you how much fun it is helping create tomorrows leaders. - TROOP TREASURER

 

• Lost and Found Coordinator and Scout Uniform Exchange Coordinator:  Please notify Ellen Stortz    emstortz@bellsouth.net or Debra Stockton dstockto@bellsouth.net or Linda Crouchman lindapip4u@aol.com.  These two positions require a much smaller commitment than other positions needed.  If you'd like to "ease" into a role with Troop 795, this would be a good position for you.   You'll be responsible for keeping an eye out on the Lost & Found or the Uniform Collection and organizing as needed.  Send out messages to troop regarding status as needed. 

 

• Merit Badge Councelors are always needed - come and get a Parent Resource Survey Form from the office to share your skills and interests so the best possible program can be developed for the Boy Scouts in this troop. In making this survey, the committee wishes to find ways you can enjoy using your talents to help our Scouts.

 

• Pinestraw co-ordinators  (at least 3)  to assist Rick Sloss with our Annual Fundraiser during February and March of each year. Please email Ellen Stortz for more information emstortz@bellsouth.net or Rick Sloss rsloss777@hotmail.com.  This position requires an intense effort during "pine straw season" working closely with scouts and parents.  If you're a detailed oriented person who likes to organize, this is a good role for you.  Good position for job sharing - ask a friend to join with you! 
  Thanks to Kihm Cibulskas and Marla Brown for agreeing to take over as our new Pine Straw Coordinators!   Need one more individual to help out.
