Just as a friendly reminder that the scout meeting tonight will be held in person. The troop will be meeting in the gym at East Somerset Baptist at 7 pm. All scouts should have a skit or song in mind to discuss with the rest of your patrol. Facemasks and social distancing guide lines will be followed.

This annual event – held as part of the birthday celebration of the Boy Scouts of America – is for all members of your family, regardless of religious denomination or belief.

Just a reminder that Troop 170 will hold a drive-through Court of Honor on Monday, January 11, starting at 6:30 pm at the Lake Cumberland Regional Airport, 500 W.O. Newell Drive (off Kit Cowan Road). There is a packet for every registered Scout.

Awards, leadership patches, rank badges, and merit badges earned during the past year will be presented. In addition. You will also receive a current contact roster.

On behalf of Troop 170 we wish everyone a safe and Merry Christmas.

On behalf of Troop 170 and everyone, we wish you all a happy and safe Thanksgiving day.

Troop 170 will not meet in-person for the rest of November. This is in keeping with recommendations from the governor and health department officials. I will assess the status of meetings in December as the weeks progress.

In the mean time, I wish each of your families a very happy, safe, socially-distanced, close-to-home Thanksgiving holiday.
