POW WOW EXTRAVAGANZAS

It’s that time of year again when I begin to run out of material as last year’s Pow Wow Books finish.  So when your Council has its Pow Wow, send me a CD of your Book and I will send you our CD.  Just write me at commissionerdave@comcast.net

Let me know as soon as your date is set.  I will post whatever I receive.  I am hoping to retire in 2007 and visit lots of Pow Wows!!!  CD

Cub Scout Achievement, Elective, Rank, and Academics and Sports Trackers on their own website!!

Roxanne@madsenco.com

A lot of websites carry the Excel based trackers she developed but have old and outdated versions. So Roxanne developed her own web page that will always carry the most recent versions (with all known bugs fixed and many enhancements recommended by users).

She recently revised the Cub Scout spreadsheets to –

ü     Include the Outdoor Activity Award

ü     Make them easier to work with in OpenOffice.

ü     Track Tiger beads and handle up to 15 tigers.

Please direct your den leaders or advancement chairs to the website for the most recent versions of the trackers. (feel free to add a link to your pack's website if that is helpful!)

http://www.madsenco.com/scouting.shtml

Thank you Roxanne!! CD

PS – She, also, has Girl Scout and Boy Scout Trackers!!!
