INCOMING WEBELOS

CEREMONIES FAQ TRANSITION


VISIT US!

Troop 806 holds its troop meetings at 7:00-8:30 p.m. on Monday evenings at Woodlake United Methodist Church. Monday meetings that follow a campout are short meetings from 7:00-8:00 p.m. Webelos leaders who plan to visit the troop with their Webelos Patrols should contact the troop a few weeks prior to the visit. This gives the Boy Scouts a chance to plan a meeting in which the Webelos can participate.

JANUARY FEES!

In January Second-year Webelos need to register as Cub Scouts with their Pack. The fees you pay at that time will cover your membership with the BSA, Cub Scout Awards (Arrow of Light), and your "Boy's Life" subscription. When you join the troop the fees you are charged are not a duplication of the above mentioned fees. For a Webelos to Troop fee list see below.

CROSSOVER!

It is STRONGLY suggested that Cub Scout Packs hold their crossover ceremonies at the end of February or the first part of March. The competition for slots at Summer Camp is fierce and by March the troop is already planning Scout Summer Camp.

MORE ABOUT SUMMER CAMP!

The troop can hold only a limited number of empty slots for Webelos beyond the middle of March. Second-year Webelos who plan to join Troop 806 can reserve a space when camp sign up starts at the first of March. This will guarantee a spot even if your Pack has not held their Crossover Ceremony. We encourage all Second year Webelos to sign up for Summer Camp. Boys who attend Summer Camp tend to stay in scouting. If you would like to be contacted when Troop 806 begins registration for summer camp, click on the mail icon below. In your e-mail message please give your phone number.

JOIN THE TROOP!

Any boy who wishes to register in Troop 806 must be accompanied by a parent or guardian to sign the necessary paper work. Check in at the table just inside the sanctuary of the church to register for the troop. The cost to join Troop 806 is as follows:
