         1. Welcome to the 47th season of Troop Nine at St. Gregory the Great RC.
             We are off to a good start with a new Troop Structure that is still beginning to work.

             Something new this season is Troop Nine Crew. Any scout 14 years of age can join
             the Crew at no extra cost (except the cost of outing by the Crew) to enjoy and have
             input to the activities the Crew does. The requirement is that you need to be active in your Troop.
See Gregory Murphy or Peter Robinson if interested.

 of Review come prepared to deal with all new requirements.

            The proper dress for Troop 9  has and will be the official Boy Scout uniform.
            There will be no substitutes. Each Scout is expected to be in full uniform at every       
             meeting. If uniforms are required for special events, travel and camp outs,
             the Scout will be notified in advance of the event. See
Scout Spirit page or
