We all want our unit advancement records to be correct and to match the council records. This tutorial on "Internet Advancement" puts the control in your hands and avoids duplication of effort. You are closest to your unit's activities and know what the real data should be. If you can't read the original data... Is it Thomas or Tomas? Was that merit badge earned on 1/11/2011 or 11/1/2011? You know who to contact, you might even be used to reading that chicken scratch! So don't rely on a paid professional or a volunteer to come in and type your handwritten advancement form into the system (I'm sure your handwritting is better than the youth and leaders in your unit...). Take control of the accuracy and timeliness of your units advancement by entering the data directly into Internet Advancement or by uploading data from your unit software. |

Merit badge clinics start at 9:00am and are held at the Bothell Stake center, the address is 16500 124th Ave N.E. Woodinville, 98072; Tel (425) 488-7070. The merit badge clinic is usually completed at 12:00, but for some merit badges, it may be shorter.
The Swimming Merit Badge will be held at Juanita High School Pool located at 10601 NE 132nd St. Kirkland WA. 98034, from 6pm to 8pm. We have paid for and have reserved the entire pool for our use during this time. During this time we will be concentrating 1st and 2nd Class requirements as well as much of the swimming merit badge swimming events as possible. If you are planning on working on the swimming merit badge you will need to have a current CPR card and have completed the First Aid merit badge.
Three of the merit badges require 2 sessions: Personal Management, Family Life and Personal Fitness. The 3 sessions are spaced 3 months apart so the daily tracking can be done between the 3 sessions. All scouts and the same merit badge counselors from the first session should attend the second session to complete the merit badge. For these merit badges, there is a second session which should be run by the same counselor who did the first session to complete the merit badge requirements.

Want to help the District, but don't have a lot of time? Trying to figure out what to do with that empty space in the back shed or carport? We have the job for you!! The District has a certain amount of gear that is used for Klondike, Camporee and Cub Day Camp. It needs about 100 sq. ft. of dry space, it does not have to be heated. Three times a year a very nice person will contact you to drop by and pick up some equipment. Then about a week later that same nice person will return the gear. Pretty simple, you get to help out the kids and make new friends, what could be better!! If this is something that you or someone in your unit has always dreamed of, please contact Mike Gaylord our District Commissioner and he can help make your dream come true. You can reach Mike at 425 788 2268 or mgaylord951@yahoo.com. Don't wait, opportunities like this don't come along everyday. |

Does someone in your unit have a US Flag that has seen its share of service? A flag retirement ceremony is a memorable addition to your program. If you don't have a flag that needs to be disposed we do, so please just ask our District Chairman Mike Kelly. |
