Scout Behavior:
The troop has the following rules:
-
Straight-blade knives, knives with blades over
3 in. long, fireworks, and all weapons are not permitted at any
Troop activity. If they are brought by a Scout, he will be suspended
from the troop.
-
The troop's leaders do not tolerate fighting, abusive
harassment or dangerously unsafe behavior (playing with knives,
axes or fires).
-
Skateboarding is prohibited at all troop activities
and Scouts are not permitted to ride skateboards on church property.
-
On campouts, a Scout should tell his Patrol Leader
or an adult leader when he is leaving the campsite (always with
a buddy) and where he is going. If a serious problem arises, the
Scout will be given a formal warning and after consultation with
adult leaders, a Scout may be asked to miss a campout or other activity.
This is unpleasant for both the Scout and the adult leaders, but
with 40+ Scouts attending activities, the Scouts must not abuse
adult leadership's trust or patience.
The Troop policy has been to deal directly with the Scout and not
take problems to the Scout's home unless there is a continuing and
severe problem. If your son has concerns, or if there is a current
potential problem, please talk to the Scoutmaster.
Let's solve concerns before they become problems. We have not had
a large number of discipline problems and do not anticipate many in
the future. The leaders do not use physical punishments of any type.
Adult Supervision:
Scouts are never left alone without adult supervision.
You are expected to pick-up your son promptly from meetings and/or
scouting events. If you are running late, please call the Scoutmaster.
Any scout not picked up after meetings or activities in an appropriate
time will be taken to an adult leader's house.
