LEC 3 Minute Update - October 19, 2023

Mornin’, all! Thanks for tuning in to this week’s three minute update. I’m outside the Cleveland Clinic, and I’ve got to tell ya, they’ve got me feeling a lot better than I was last week. Much less dead! Ok, on this week’s update, we have: Training Updates, Event Updates, Recruitment Updates, Recharter Updates, and Popcorn Updates.

But first: some sort of big news about Scoutbook: the Scoutbook calendar is migrating to Internet Advancement on November 9th. That means all unit calendaring will happen in internet advancement moving forward, instead of Scoutbook. If you’d like to learn more, check out this link. If you have further questions, please contact LEC Member Care.

But first, there’s a sale going on at the Cleveland Scout Shop. Buy a uniform top, and get matching bottoms for 10% off. Come Check it out!

Wilderness First Aid registrations are open through next week. The course is at Beaumont the first weekend of November.

Recharter portals are now open, and recharters must be turned in by December 8th, free of significant error, to avoid the late fee of $100. Begin Collecting dues from your returning families now! Send Michelle Cali your questions.
