Since new uniforms cost about $100, request is made that all old uniforms be donated to the troop uniform closet.
This can be done any Tuesday night.
++NEW VENTURE UNIFORMS++ The committee has voted to authorize ventures to wear the new national venture uniform. Looks good and the ventures voted to use the new uniform, subject to committee approval.

~~~~RENAISSANCE MAN~~~~~
Michael Walker is a true renaissance man. On one Saturday, Michael sang in an ensemble with 19 other students and they received a I rating, which is the best. He also sang a solo “Beautiful Dreamer” and received a II rating. He ran the 400 relay (and ran a 12 split) and took 3rd place. Then he also ran the 800 relay (and ran a 24 split) and took 1st place. His team set a city record on the 800 relay, beating the Palo Duro team. It was a wild Saturday!! Michael’s ensemble was that morning in Canyon, the track meet was all afternoon at Dick Bivins, and his solo was back in Canyon at 4:00 that afternoon. Where does he get all that energy? No one knows, but Troop 80 is very proud of this renaissance man.
~~You are important to Troop 80.
~~Make Troop 80 important to you.
