	An Award/Parent Meeting has been scheduled for September 18. 
	This is an award meeting to honor scouts who have worked hard to earn ranks and badges throughout the summer. 
	As always, Parents <![CDATA[<u>]]>must<![CDATA[</u>]]> attend in order for scouts to receive awards. 
	In a way, it's similar to a "Welcome Back" meeting and snacks will be provided! 
	The meeting will take place at the Scout Hut at 5:15 pm.
	Class A uniform is a MUST.
	<![CDATA[<br>]]><![CDATA[<br>]]>
	In addition to the award ceremony, a MANDATORY parent meeting will also be held to discuss changes that will be implemented into our Scout program. 
	This is also a great opportunity for parents to get answers to their questions or ask questions regarding Scouting or Scout Society. 
	There is much to discuss so please arrive promptly.
	<![CDATA[<br>]]><![CDATA[<br>]]>
	<![CDATA[<b>]]>Parental attendance is essential!<![CDATA[</b>]]>
	If your parent is unable to attend this important meeting, Scouts must have an adult/guardian with them to represent their parent at this parent meeting.

	Ending with the Labor Day weekend, Scouts signed up their holiday for a course of American Red Cross CPR training.
	Scouts attended the class and took tests (both skill and written) to determine their knowledge of CPR basics.
	Those who showed up around 12:30 pm also got spaghetti for lunch.
	Hopefully, these Scouts now have a better idea of what they need to do when there is a need to perform CPR.

	"Keep eye contact with the person that you are communicating with."
	That was one of the key etiquette rules that Scouts learned during the September 5th Etiquette Class.
	Today, Scout Society had a guest speaker who presented to the Scouts about a few etiquette rules that would better them in life.
	Etiquette and mannerism in today's society is still of great importance!

	A new feature that we have added to &lt;a href=&quot;https://sites.google.com/a/scoutsociety.org/ss-portal/Home&quot;&gt;SS Portal&lt;/a&gt; is a form named "Appointments." 
	Prior to the creation of this form, Scouts had to send emails in order to schedule their Scoutmaster Conference or Board of Review. 
	With the &lt;a href=&quot;https://sites.google.com/a/scoutsociety.org/ss-portal/Home/appointments&quot;&gt;Appointments&lt;/a&gt; form, all Scouts have to do is fill out some information and submit the form. 
	Depending on the availability of space, Scouts will be notified of their appointment.
	<![CDATA[<br>]]><![CDATA[<br>]]>
	Remember, Scoutmaster Conferences are held every month during the First Saturday while Board of Reviews are held on the Second Saturday (unless noted otherwise).
	Regular email requests will NO longer be accepted!

	Many thanks to all Scouts who showed up at the Clean Up on August 22nd.
	Closets were cleaned/organized and new shelves were installed by Mr. Wu.
	The brush and vegetation growing along the fence was also cleared away leaving things a lot cleaner than before.
	As a bonus, Scouts had a fun time chasing the 2 chickens that mysteriously showed up at the Hut.
	Thank you to all who showed up!
	We appreciate your effort in keeping the Hut as clean as possible.

	After a week of work and fun on Catalina Island, Troop 511 has returned back to the mainland safely.
	Scouts were able to complete requirements for merit badges and ranks while enjoying the various fun activites offered on the island.
	From kayaking to snorkeling, scouts also had the opportunity to shoot arrows and fire off some .22 rifles.

	Several scouts were able to achieve the BSA Mile Swim Award, a very great accomplishment!
	Mr. Poon was able to renew his Lifeguard status and Kevin Shih was honored with the Dime Club (all shots fired from the .22 rifle fits under the cover of a dime).
	Be sure to check out the pictures when they are posted.

	Troop 511 has a new Eagle Scout and his name is Raymond Chung.
	Last night (July 29), the Eagle Board met to determine whether or not Raymond qualified to become an Eagle Scout.
	Needless to say, after several interviews, the Board congratulated Raymond on his success of becoming one.
	<![CDATA[<br>]]><![CDATA[<br>]]>
	Congratulations Raymond!
	Scout Society wishes you the best and we hope you will always remember to follow the Scout Law, Oath, Motto and Slogan in life.
	Don't forget, although you're finished with your Eagle, there's still the Silver Award of Venturing.

	More information about this event will come soon.
	<![CDATA[<br>]]><![CDATA[<br>]]>
	One thing that you could do in the meantime is to raid your house to find empty containers with lids.
	<![CDATA[<b>]]>Yup, we need large containers: metal, plastic, glass.<![CDATA[</b>]]>
	If you have any of these said containers (say...snack containers or cookie tins), please bring them down to the Scout Hut.
	We will use them to store food and supplies that we will use for our campouts.
	Happy hunting and much thanks for your help!

	With summer coming, Scout Society will be switching over to the Summer Schedule.
	All scouts will be allowed to wear their Class B uniform instead of their Class A.

	Scouts must appear in their complete military pressed Class A Uniform with all the required documents.
	<![CDATA[<br>]]>
	<![CDATA[<br>]]>
	Scout Society will also be having fewer meetings.
	For the month of June, there will not be a meeting on June 12th.
	So keep an eye out for the calendar, emails, website, and this RSS Feed.
	It'll keep you informed and you'll know whether or not there will be a meeting that week.

 <title>Hoegee's Trail Backpacking Hike Experience...and Rescue?</title>

	Saturday's backpacking hike went fairly well.
	Scouts new to the experience of backpacking were able to get the feel of how a backpacking trip would be.
	Everything goes into their pack; food, water, ten essentials, sleeping gear, etc...
	Now that they know how it's like, scouts should look forward to a real backpacking trip that will be coming soon.
	<![CDATA[<br/>]]>
	<![CDATA[<br/>]]>
	Special props goes to <![CDATA[<strong/>]]>Jason Kong<![CDATA[</strong/>]]> for truly being a scout who helps those in need.
	On the way back from the Hoegee's campground, Jason saw a group of hikers and dogs who were in need of assistance.
	Their dog suddenly became frightened and had stumbled off the trail, falling down the mountain side and getting caught in the bushes.
	Jason dropped his pack and lent a hand to pull the dog to safety by carefully lowering himself and reaching over the side of the mountain.
	A super job well done for your heroic rescue, Jason!

	Although it was a rainy event on Saturday, March 6th, scouts braved the weather and participated in Scout Society's 2nd Annual Camporee.
	Scouts were tested on their skill through written tests and hands on events.
	But with the heavy downpour, hail, and chilly wind, younger scouts left camp after dinner.
	The older scouts stayed for a PLC meeting reflecting and planning events.
	All in all, a wet yet entertaining campout.

	The basketball tournament, Roundball Bash, held today on January 10th was a great game.
	Scouts got into teams and competed against each other to show off their skills in basketball.
	Not only was this a great team building effort, scouts could use this game to work towards their advancements and merit badges, if they know where to look ;)
	Keep up the good teamwork!

	Scout Society had its annual Christmas Party at the Garvey Community Center on December 20, 2009.
	It was a celebration planned by the Girl Scouts of Troop 512.
	Participants and guests of this party enjoyed games such as Present Pass and Musical Chairs.
	Unfortunatley, the party ran a bit late because the turkey was not ready for dinner.
	Overall, a great and fun time and many thanks goes to Mr. Javier Wu, Mr. Perry Poon, and the kitchen staff who cooked a very delicious turkey dinner.

	Scout Hut Clean up is also this week!
	December 5th at 4:00 pm.
	Yes, we moved the time up so we can take advantage of what little daylight we get.
	No need for uniform since it isn't much of a meeting, but I recommend you to wear clothes you don't mind getting dirty.
	We all know how "clean" the Scout Hut is...
