Recharter Training


Did you miss the online recharter training? We still want you to know what to do. Here are the slides (PPT or PDF) from the training and the quality review checklist.

Oak Leaf Youth Training

Troop, Team, and Crew leaders: Would you like to reinforce your Troop Leader Training with hands on and boy taught leadership and patrol method principles? We have a training for you! From 7 am to 6 pm on Saturday, February, 27th right here in McKinney, Lone Star District will be hosting “Oak Leaf Training”. Your First Class and higher boys and youth leaders would benefit from it! Sign up and get details here.

BALOO and OWL Training


Does your pack camp or are you a Webelos leader wanting to be fully trained?  Then you need to take our upcoming BALOO or OWL training being held Saturday, February 13th at 8 am.  BALOO is Basic Adult Leader Outdoor Orientation and must be taken by someone for a pack to be able to go camping.  OWL is Outdoor training for Webelos Leaders and helps them not only to do den camping but to teach outdoor type activity badges.  Sign up and get more details here.

Order of the Arrow Elections


Now is the time when each troop and team should host elections for youth (First Class or higher) and adults (1 for each 50 boys) from their units who exemplify the scouting ideals and meet the camping requirement.  Let Ty Hardin  (cjhardin@att.net our Vice Chief of Inductions), or his adviser, Bob Gates (972-678-1221, gates.rr@grandecom.net) know when they can come hold elections with your unit.
