Last night was my first official Boy Scout Leader Roundtable. Although there were quite a few technical difficulties, the best part was meeting some of the other Troops leaders, but most of all was the time I got to spend with our Scoutmaster. I have only known him for a short period of time, but what a great guy. He has listened to my rants and raves and all of my excitement. Although I thought that he may not have been paying attention, and I was wrong. He has been overwhelmed with stuff, and he informed me last night that when he registered me as a leader with our Troop, that he listed me as his Troop Committee Chairman. I am so excited and nervous all at the same time. This Troop has never had an active committee, but it's going to now!!
So he and I left the roundtable meeting and ended up meeting until late last night sharing passions and dreams for our boys and our Troop. My position hasn't been announced as of yet, but it will be soon enough. So I'm off to read my Troop Committee Guide and put pen to paper on ideas and thoughts.
I also have told our District Executive that I will be helping with FOS. I guess we'll put my car business selling skills to use in Scouting now. My First NESA Committee meeting will be in 2 weeks as well. Lots of great things coming up for this Eagle and Scout Dad.
Stay thirsty.
