108 Scouts Who Became Famousfrom scoutingmagazine.org
The BSA is turning 108! Here's a list of 108 scouts who have become famous. What does the Grubmaster do?- Scoutmaster Krzypkowski
I have had a few questions about "Grubmaster" What does "Grubmaster" mean?? It’s a privileged position that fulfills rank requirements in order for a scout to plan, buy, and help prepare meals during an outing. Individual patrols should have planned their meal menu for Frezeree. The Grubmaster for each patrol will go out to a store and buy the food on the planned menu and have it ready for Frezeree. Meals that the Grubmaster will buy should not exceed $5 per scout, per meal. Example – 6 scouts in a patrol = $30 per meal. After you have completed your shopping, please save any receipts if you would like reimbursement from the troop. Snacks and additional food throughout the weekend will be the responsibility of each scout – Grubmaster is only responsible for getting the above listed meals. All cooking equipment is provided by the troop (Inside each patrol box) along will fuel and stoves. As always, the first few outings can be overwhelming – don’t hesitate to ask questions.

Troop 300: 100% Trained Adults
Our troop decided quite some time ago that we wanted to be 100% trained. This means that when you turn in your adult application, it needs to be accompanied with certificates for youth protection training and also committee training. Both are online at my.scouting.org
We always need to have people trained in Hazardous Weather to go on trips, so just do that one while you are in there (:>)
If you want to be an assistant scoutmaster, you will need both the scoutmaster specific (can be done online but I suggest you do it in person) but also the in-person Introduction to Outdoor Leadership. When we have a group of you that want to do that, please let me know and we can arrange it. It will probably be offered at camp too. We are currently working on putting that together.
So please check your youth protection training - I know a few of you are expired - and get it done so we can stay 100% trained.
