Scouting for Food Collection and Drop Off
2020-11-07 09:00 - 11:00 | VA
Hello Troop 58,
Scouting for Food is this coming Friday and Saturday benefiting Loudoun Hunger Relief. This will be a different format than last year as we will not receive sponsorship from the district, and we will not go door-to-door. We will instead use social media to notify residents in Lansdowne, Belmont, and Ashburn Village to drop food off at four locations Scout homes (Khalili's, Savar, Levine's, and OShen) all day Friday and St. Davids' church Saturday Morning 9-11AM.
We will need Scouts for the following:
St. Davids – 9-11AM– Traffic direction (2 Scouts)– Food unload from cars (4 Scouts)
The response and amount of donated food is unpredictable so we may need some assistance to deliver the food to Loudoun Hunger located on 750 MILLER DRIVE by the Leesburg Airport; Loudoun Hunger is open Saturday mornings through 12 Noon. We will send out another notification Friday if we need help. Please RSVP the following:
– Scout – Saturday Morning Church Work (6 Scouts)– Scout – Standby – Food Loading at a house and delivery to Loudoun Hunger (we will email on Friday to update on donation amount)– Parent – Standby – Drive to Deliver Food to Loudoun Hunger (we will email on Friday to update on donation amount)
YiS,
Mr. Shen
P.S. Mrs. Levine did a fantastic job on the e-flyer:

Bike Hike campout
2020-10-17 08:00 - 2020-10-18 11:00 | Lake Fairfax Campsite
Biking Campers,

About the Bike Hike, we're going to be starting at the Trailside Middle School, Saturday, 8:00am, and return around Sunday 11am. A text or email will be sent with the return ETA Sunday morning. We're going to bike 15 miles on the W&OD Trail to Lake Fairfax campsite. Will take around 2-3 hours to get there. If anyone needs to take a break along the way, the entire group will take a break. Once you get there you can mountain bike or you can just chill out from the long and quick ride. You can also work on your mountain bike merit badge on this campout. Can also count this toward your Camping MB 9b – an important Eagle required MB.

With Covid still an issue, all need to bring their own tent and own food. You will need food for Saturday lunch and dinner, and Sunday breakfast. We will bring the troop trailer to carry the tents and food, but bring your bag lunch and water with you on the bike in case we decide to stop on the trail to eat on the way.
You will want to ensure that both you and your bike are ready for the bike hike. You may want an extra tube and tools to change the tube and a pump for air.

Bike helmets are a must wear while riding so be sure to have or won’t be able to attend.
YiS, Lee Moore

Jamboree on the Internet
2020-10-16 20:00 - 2020-10-18 21:00 | See below
The Jamboree-on-the-Air and Jamboree-on-the-Internet are the largest Scouting events in the world with more than 1.5 million Scouts from more than 160 countries annually participating. If you’ve never experienced the digital or amateur radio events before, this might be the perfect time to attend, especially with many of us Scouting at home.
These events will be held concurrently Oct. 16-18, and will allow Scouts to connect with other Scouts, locally, nationally or globally. You can register here.
For the Jamboree-on-the-Internet, all you need is an Internet-enabled device, like a computer, laptop, tablet or mobile phone. If you have a ham radio, you should be good for the Jamboree-on-the-Air, too. However, many Scouts opt to visit a local amateur radio operator’s ham shack or a ham shack at a council camp. If you’re planning to do that, make sure to comply with local and state COVID-19 guidance. Also, read this checklist for restarting Scouting in-person.
Fun activities
The World Organization of the Scout Movement has released the Jamboree-on-the-Air/Jamboree-on-the-Internet interactive map, highlighting all the activities planned for that weekend:
Safety Centre
Youth Got Talent Stage
Fun Zone
Amateur Radio Hub
Challenge Valley
JOTA-JOTI Live
Some of these activities require pre-registration, so look at the map for activities your Scout would be interested in. For example, Scouts can sign up (deadline is Oct. 11) at the Youth Got Talent Stage to showcase their talents, from cooking to music to singing, to be broadcast during the live shows.
Other activities will focus on training and information, such as the Safety Centre, which will offer tips for being safe on the internet.
And, of course, there will be plenty of fun opportunities. Visit the Fun Zone for a universal dance party, music, quizzes, games and arts and crafts. The Amateur Radio Hub will be the place to be to discover the world of the wireless radio and connect with Scouts from around the world.
For updates leading up to the events, you can sign up through this Facebook event or check out the International Adventures blog. After attending, you can order this cool patch from the Scout Shop.

Josiah Lamb’s Eagle Scout Project
2020-10-10 09:30 - 16:00 | 312 E Market St Leesburg, VA 20176 United States
We will be planting trees at the George Marshall Madona Manor. This inclues moving and planting the trees. As well as spreading mulch. Those participating should wear clothes that can get dirty. The project will last approximately six hours. (I am not sure of the exact time it will take so likely we will be done in the 2:30-4:30 time frame. I will keep the parents posted.)
I need approximately 15 scouts as well as at least two adult leaders to participate.
Water and lunch will be provided.
Items required for participants: masks (however we will be doing fairly physical labor outside, while social distanced so the masks will likely not need to be used much.) and work gloves (optional)
