    Don’t forget about the Trainer’s Development Conference being held this Saturday, July 17th, from 8:30-4:30 at Mt. Vernon!  The conference is only $10 and includes all your material and lunch.  The location is at Lighthouse Assembly of God behind Jean’s Restaurant in Mt. Vernon.

    The success of your pack or troop will primarily depend on the quality of the trained leadership you have at the helm.  The best way for you to have trained leadership is to have a pack or troop trainer that can train all your incoming leadership on a schedule that fits your unit!  Please consider sending someone from your unit to this training!

    To pre-register please visit www.bgbsa.org or for more information contact Judy Price at 606-679-4940 or at judyprice@newwavecom.net.

    See you there!
