- Hello Scouts of Troop 53,
- Just a reminder that June 13th is our Court of Honor. All blue
cards need to be turned in on Monday, June 6th in order to be
presented with the merit badge at this Court. If not, you will
have to wait until the Court of Honor in October.
- Also, I have the Padre tickets for the August 22nd game against
the Houston Astros. This is one of our Summer Activities. I have
40 tickets and they are available on a first come first served
basis. The permission slips for all of the Summer Activities will
be passed out at the June 13th Court of Honor. See you all Monday.

you on this opportunity to pay our respects to the great leader
and sage of Troop 53. You imbued the Scout Spirit that makes me
and your community so proud of you. Thanks for representing the
Troop in such a fine fashion. Hank Levien

- This is a web site that Ed Dominic put together of the photos
from this year's Scout Fair. It has couple of pictures of our
Troop. One is really good. I looking through the photos, I was
wondering if we should have a Troop 53 "Stands Above the
Rest" banner made.
