LEC 3 Minute Update - November 4, 2022

Good afternoon, everyone! And welcome to this week’s three minute update, brought to you from beautiful Bedford, Ohio! Home of the Bedford Reservation, this is a beautiful place to visit this time of year!

Okay, this week we have: Scout Shop Updates, Silver Screen Overnighter, Holidays at Camp, Klondikes, and Quiet Time, online maintenance, In-Person Youth Protection Training Updates, and this week’s fun fact.

First: the Cleveland Scout Shop is seeking part-time help! If you’re interested in golden epaulettes and making a difference, email Paula Puchajda today!

It’s not too late to put your jolly on and register for Holidays at Camp! It’s a family-fun day of enjoying the beautiful winter wonderland out at Firelands. Questions go to Jess Weaver, sign up now!

Troops: Klondikes are now on the calendar and open for registration! Themes and leaders’ guides are still being finalized. Beaumont Klondikes will be in January, and Firelands’ Klondike will be in February. 

And now, for this week’s fun fact:

Did you know that if they made a movie about Tetris, it’d be a real Block Buster???

Well, there won’t be a Tetris movie available to watch on the big screen, but there’s a Silver Screen Overnighter upcoming in Elyria on December 16th-17th. Registration is live, contact Jim Vanderpool for questions.

My.Scouting.org and Scoutbook.org will be down this Saturday, November 5th, for maintenance from national. The upgrades are slated to last all day, so we recommend NOT going in until Sunday.

And speaking of things to do online, remember your unit’s recharter is due by December 10th! Any questions should be sent to Member Care.

And speaking of rechartering your unit, remember that, the whole week of Thanksgiving, the Unit Service Center will be closed for Quiet Time – Shhhh. Us employees will be at home with family that week. So don’t wait! Get your charter submitted and your questions asked in advance!

And speaking of Quiet Time – Shhhh, note that the Cleveland Scout Shop will be open during the week of Thanksgiving, except for Thanksgiving Day and Black Friday.

Now, lastly, in-person youth protection training will be on November 9th in Avon and November 14th in Cleveland. Register now: it’s free!

And that’s a wrap for this week’s three minute update! Thanks for all you do, and thanks for being you! We’ll see you next time.
