  1. After many phone calls, talking and talking and talking... We are officially a troop. We got 3 more boys to fill out applications. District got back to us late last week and said all the paperwork is in, it is processed and now to move forward.
  2. Second Class We have everything but our 5 boys. So no we are not a troop yet.
