  Our Pack will be a part of the 400 cub scouts. We're actually coming out-of-council to attend the event. They forewarned us that there is still damage, but staying in line with the "Dragon Quest" theme, they are using the damage as if the dragon came through and wrecked havoc. Now...the cub scouts must fight to take it back. Loving the creativity!

  Hurricane Helene, 1100 acre scout camp buried under debris, Camp Ranger Troy Williams, FEMA PPDR program, "For the PPDR mission, property owners must submit a Right of Entry (ROE) form, which is a legal document that allows government contractors to access private land to remove debris. Collecting and verifying these forms is one of the first critical steps in determining eligibility and getting work underway. Without it, the Corps (US Army Core of Engineers contractors) cannot remove debris from private property." ... "Camp Grimes is on track to fully reopen by June 1. One troop has already stayed overnight and soon there will be 400 Cub Scouts arriving for a major weekend event."

- Mere Good Presentation versus Requirement?

  Depends on the project. In general, scouts at this age are better served by being asked to exercise verbal presentation skills. I would encourage troops to avoid mandating boiler-plate formats.
