To All
Monday, Feb 18th, Troop 1441 conducted a very successful Merit Badge Day at the Church of Christ at Manor Woods.  Scouts and leaders from all over the District including the girls from the newly created troops participated.  Some Scouts took two badges and some only one.  We had 102 scouts participate in 146 classes.  Not all were completions and the Scouts will have to follow up.
Thanks to Hank Keegan, Frank Costa, John Ingeholm, Bill and Vivian Kassman, Ben Allen, Larry Davis, Ryan Keegan, James Lehman, Claudette Lanning, and especially Theresa Garcia Parks and all the adults that lent a hand.  
 
Lincoln Vandegriff and his robotics team buddies put on a great Stem robotics show at the Troop meeting with Scouts operating robots running all over the floor picking up balls and putting them in boxes and other tricks.  Good job guys.
