2005 National Scout Jamboree Emergency Preparedness Award

[Eamonn 61]

I have been trying to get all the kinks worked out of my plans for the Jamboree. We will start holding regular Troop meetings in September. So there is a lot of planning needed.

As I was going through the web site and the news letters I came across this Emergency Preparedness Award. If this isn't new I missed it completely last time.

You can find it at:

The Merit Badges ought not be a problem. I am going to have to work on finding out who in our area does a emergency preparedness program. Also need to have the Scouts work on a jamboree travel emergency kit. I will work on the plan for the troop.

Think we will need an extra meeting or even two meetings to cover all this stuff.

Eamonn.
