~Tracks from the Trading Post~ We have received a letter today relating to defects in the Cub Scout Immediate Recognition Kit (Item No. 01804). The Boy Scouts of America has directed all of its Scout Shops and all retailers who sell the product to remove it from their shelves immediately and return it to us. Purchasers will be advised by Kahoot as to further action to be taken. We are requesting anyone who may have purchased the item to remove the Cub Scout Recognition totem badge from their children’s possession and, until further instructions are received, keep it in a safe place where only adults will have access to them. Our highest priority is the safety of our youth members and their families. Boy Scouts of America apologizes for any concern this matter causes parents. BSA is doing everything we can to ensure the health and safety of all those who participate in our programs. Join Scout Night Special Helps Have kids wear uniforms to school on your unit’s joining night. Pass out information quickly as possible. Survey calling gets best results. In-class promotion gets better results. Council Officers: President - Tom Kieffer Commissioner - Jim Faris Executive - Randy Brown |
