VOTE! 2012

Today is Election Day! Since 1792 we have been electing our Presidents for the United States of America. Many people will have different feelings about this election... At the end of the day, we are all American's and must work together towards the greater good.  Please exercise your right to vote and cast your ballot for who you believe will do the better job.

American Heritage Merit Badge requirement 3 would be great to work on during this Election.

If doing flags as a Troop fundraiser, don't forget to put them out this morning!

The Fourth of July!

We hope that you have a Happy and Safe Independence Day. Our thoughts and prayers go out to all those in the Armed Forces who are fighting and protecting our freedom, and to those that are being affected and those who are fighting against all the wild fires Nation wide.   

American Heritage Merit Badge

AMERICAN

HERITAGE

1. Read the Declaration of Independence. Pay close attention to the section that begins with “We hold these truths to be self-evident” and ends with “to provide new Guards for their future security.” Rewrite that section in your own words, making it as easy to understand as possible. Then, share your writing with your merit badge counselor and discuss the importance of the Declaration to all Americans.
