Troop Newsletter
A troop email is sent out once or twice a week. It is the primary way we communicate events to the troop. Please subscribe to the email distribution list by submitting the form below. You can easily remove your name later from the distribution list by clicking the link at the bottom of each newsletter email. Most scouts eventually sign up as well.
MEETINGS:
Monday nights, 7:15-8:45 pm at St. Matthews Lutheran Church of Lake Zurich. Troop meetings are held throughout the year, except for August, b/c we go to Summer Camp in July. Check the calendar on this website for any cancellations due to school holiday breaks. We meet a the American Legion a few times a year in March and November. We publish our events to a Google Calendar; the URL is published in the Troop emails.
APPLICATION & FEES:
For 2024, re-chartering fees for Scouts were $195 for the year. The Troop uses Zelle as the primary mechanism for payments for dues, campouts, etc.
HEALTH FORMS:
Please complete the BSA Healthform You only need to fill out PARTS A and B for registration.
Note: Please save the form on your computer, since you will need to fill this out every year. It’s easier to just change any information each year rather than completely filling it out again.
UNIFORM:
The troop will provide neckerchief, slider, shoulder lapels, Troop 964 patch, and book.
The purchase of a standard tan Boy Scout shirt is required. Scout pants and socks are optional to purchase but nice to have.
