Medal of Honor
January 15, 2010
Congratulations to Joshua Velier on earning the highest award in scouting. On Dec. 28th Josh was presented his Eagle Award in front of family, friends, and fellow scouts. He is the 22nd Eagle Scout to come out of Troop 843 since its inception in 1937. WE are all very proud of him and are looking forward hearing many good things from him. Josh moved to Missouri in August and is going to school to be an Electrician. He also hopes to continue his involvement with scouting.
In what ever you do, Josh, we wish you all the best! Good Job, Well Done!

New BSA Health and Medical Records
September 10, 2009
Effective January 1st 2010, the new BSA Health and Medical Record will be replacing the old Medication Cards and the Class 1, 2, & 3 Health forms. From now on, everyone will use the same form for all events. This new form will be required for all scouts, leaders and parents going on any scout outings or campouts. For long term camping (anything over 72 hours) and any ‘High Adventure’ events, an annual doctors physical will be required.
The nice thing about the new form is that it is an electronic file that you download to your computer, enter and edit your information, and then save your own copy for future use. A hard copy must then be printed off and turned in to the Scoutmaster for each event. If you have any questions about the new forms, you can click here or contact Mr. Malueg. You can find the new BSA Health and Medical Record on our ‘Forms’ page.

Wanna Help?
Posted April 6, 2009
It takes a lot to make a troop successful, especially if you want to be an “active troop”. That means lots of outings, rank advancement, and community involvement. Our Troop is becoming very active, and we need your help to keep it going. What better way to show interest in what your son is doing than getting involved? Become a Committee Member, an Assistant Scoutmaster, or even a Merit Badge Councelor. Or do you have another idea of how you can help? To learn more, contact a Leader or Committee Member today, or E-mail us at: scoutmaster@oostburgscouts.org

Thanks for Looking!!!
