Hello Southshore!
Happy 100th Birthday!  As we travel through the last month or two of winter we can see spring quickly approaching.  Soon it will be time to break out the fishing poles, tents, and load up the trailers for camp.  Are you prepared?  Please have a representative contact Joel Potega bbduckjsp@aol.com or Jenny Lowell bayviewgrad76@yahoo.com about Camp Promotions and information. 

Klondike Derby
We have had a lot of great stuff happening.  The 2010 Klondike Derby at IMR was an absolute success.  Congratulations to Joel Potega the Klondike Chair, and all of the Troops and Packs that participated.  We had over 200 Youth and Adults enjoy a weekend of Scouting skills and education.  Great job to Troop 208 for taking home the coveted Klondike Trophy, you did an outstanding job and have proven to be masters of winter skills.

Cub Klondike

Southshore had a great Cub Scout Klondike!  We had over 100 youth and adults in attendance and had a lot of fun in the snow.  Thanks to all that attended and helped run the event.  Special thanks to Larry Gordon for his outstanding leadership in chairing the event as well as Curtis Moldenauer, Richard Binkowski, and all of the 228 Scouts that made it a success.  Great Job Gentlemen! 

Popcorn
It is popcorn time once again.  Please get your Units signed up to sell this year.  Remember this is a great way for your Scouts to earn their way to camp and pay for important things like registration and advancements.  Please don’t short change your Scouts, give them the opportunity to earn their own way.  Remember a Scout is Thrifty.  Please contact Alex Behrend 414 443 2853 or Sue Miller 414 643 5230 to get your Unit signed up today!    REGISTRATION FORM

Needs
Southshore has a great District volunteer staff and outstanding Cubmasters, Den leaders, Scoutmasters, and Committee Members. However, we need to fill some positions at our District level. Currently, we are in need of:

Family FOS Presenters
Camp Promotions Chair
Finance Chair
Unit Commissioners

These positions are paramount to the success of our District. Are you willing to take on a leadership role? Do you have skills that can benefit Southshore? We truly need your help and guidance so that Scouting’s next 100 years is as great as its first 100 years.

Many of the positions listed above do not have the time commitment that you may expect. However, all of the above positions directly influence how we proceed as a District. I know that there are leaders out there waiting for the opportunity to get involved in something bigger than themselves. Maybe that’s you, maybe that’s someone you know. All I ask is that if it is you or someone you know please contact me or have them contact me and get involved. We need you to make a difference.

Questions?
If you have questions, need information, do not know who to contact, or are having difficulty with your programs, please feel free to contact Kurt Rusch, Southshore District Executive at (414) 443-2858 or krusch@mccbsa.org.
