ALL SCOUTS DESERVE TRAINED LEADERS.
Scoutmaster Specific Training introduces you to everything you need to know about running a Scouts BSA Troop, which is different from a Cub Scout Pack. In particular, you and your fellow adult leaders are now in more of a “mentor” position where your job is to help your youth members learn and practice leadership.

The Rio Grande Council has Camperships available for local Council Youth wanting to attend Summer Camp. See “Resource” tab for more information.Project opportunity!
The Eli Jackson - Brewster Cemetery Preservation Association is looking for someone to 1. take drone photos or 2. map the cemetery (using a rope/grid preservationist technique) or 3. get GPS coordinates (easy to do with a smartphone and the Findagrave app) for each of the 88 marked graves in hopes of plotting them in Google.
Any one of these would make a great Eagle project. And you would get recognition and mention in a National Application we are filing.
The documentation will be filed with the County and the Historical Commission, too.
The cemetery is located 700 W Doffin Rd, Pharr, TX 78577 - over the levy and on the other side of the wall, a block down from the Jackson Ranch Chapel. Some of the last names are Singleterry, Garza, Yarrito, Brewster, Jackson, Prado. www.findagrave.com/cemetery/2650696/eli-jackson-cemetery
Anyone interested please contact me. Thank you.

Hermits Peak and Calf Canyon Fire Update, May 11, 2022, 4:00 PM MDT
Philmont continues to host the Type 3 team on the Cooks Peak Fire. With 97% containment and the continued monitoring of the interior heat and containment lines we are shifting updates to the Hermits Peak and Calf Canyon Fire.
Hermits Peak started on April 6th and Calf Canyon started on April 19th. The two fires merged during extreme fire weather conditions on April 22nd, 2022. The fire is estimated at 236,939 acres and is 33% contained with 1863 personnel assigned.
Continued red flag warning and an extended weather pattern of hot, dry, and windy with gusts of 50 mph today.
The fire is spreading north and at last report has not crossed into Colfax County. Black Lake, NM is under a GO evacuation status and Angel Fire, NM is under SET (in a Ready, Set, Go scenario).
The Philmont and Cimarron Volunteer fire departments have been deployed to Black Lake.
There is smoke in base camp. There are currently no participants at Philmont. The health and safety of our staff is the top priority and air quality is being monitored.
The Philmont management team is working closely with Incident Command to monitor the situation and execute fire mitigation procedures both on and off our property.
We greatly appreciate the incident management team and the firefighters for continuing to keep Philmont and our surrounding communities safe.
Philmont is preparing for summer operations as scheduled and currently onboarding seasonal staff.
