Troop 111

Did you know that you can make instant oatmeal without a bowl or a cup?

That’s right!  If you have the right brand of oatmeal, you can make it right in the package.

But, surprisingly, it’s not the expensive oatmeal that allows this.  It’s the INEXPENSIVE oatmeal (like Great Value from WalMart) that has the foil lining and will let you just open the package, add hot water, stir and enjoy.

When you’re finished, it can go into the trash.  Be sure to recycle that plastic spoon!

The Order of the Arrow (OA) is the national honor society of the Boy Scouts of America (BSA). Founded in 1915, it uses American Indian traditions and ceremonies to bestow recognition on Scouts selected by their peers as best exemplifying the Scout Oath and Scout Law in their daily lives. Inducted members are known as Arrowmen or brothers and are organized into local youth-led lodges for fellowship and the rendering of service to Boy Scout councils and their communities. 

Troop 111 will be participating in the Induction weekend over 08/22/2008 - 08/24/2008.

An email invitation has been sent for those eligible to participate in the election.

If your name was not on the list, but you would like to attend for support, please call Mr. Hines.
