Who is William Boyce?

You may notice that many of the documents and forms on our web site were posted by William Boyce. If you ever get email from MapleValleyTroop711@gmail.com, you will see it comes from William Boyce. So who is William Boyce?

Forms now in PDF format

The Scout Permission Slip and Website Permission Slip forms are now available in PDF format, for those of you without Microsoft Word. You can find them on the Forms page. Don't forget, we really need those Website Permission Slips or we can't post photos! Thanks.

This just in -- we've just added the 2009 Popcorn Order Form.

September, 2009 Court of Honor

We had a really good turnout for our September Court of Honor. The Troop earned 105 Merit Badges and we had 20 rank advancements! Congratulations to all our Scouts for their hard work. And congratulations to Brennen and Patrick for achieving the rank of Life Scout.

Website Permission Slip now online

Please download and fill out the new Website Permission Slip and bring it to the next Troop meeting. (you can also find it on the Links page) We have some photos from Camp Easton that we're dying to post, but we need everyone's permission first. That includes adults as well as scouts. Thanks!

P.S. If you have any photos of recent Troop events please email them to your webmaster. Thanks again!

Calendar Updates

If you have any calendar updates, please email them to me and I will post them ASAP. You can reach me here at MapleValleyTroop711@gmail.com. Thanks!

Hey, it worked!

As you can see, the Troop's blog entries now appear on the web site (although the type is sorta small. Sorry about that, but we can't seem to adjust it). You'll notice there's also news feeds from the Boy Scouts of America. There should be enough material there to keep you busy! Feedback welcome.

Welcome

Welcome to the Troop 711 blog (weblog for you computer cavepeople). This is really a test. If it works, I'd like to be able to post news here and have the current news item show on the Troop's website. We'll see how that goes.
