Dear Scout Families,

As we approach Thanksgiving, I wanted to take a moment to extend my warmest wishes to each of you. This holiday is a special time for us to gather around the table, share delicious meals, and create lasting memories filled with happiness and laughter.

Providing luminaria kits through the community is a beautiful way to celebrate the season.  Troop 316 prepared 6,000 pounds of sand for the upcoming kit. Special thanks to Mr. Gunter for providing the trailer and storage as preparations continue.

Continuing with the automotive theme, the troop camped at, and attended NASCAR races at Martinsville Speedway Virginia.  With a troop hike .526 miles around the racetrack!

Troop 316 began their meeting with some business at hand, continuing automotive study in preparation of an upcoming outing.


Then, it was time for a party!  Welcoming AOLs' from Pack 312, T316 enjoyed beverages and treats showing off their finest.

Dear Scouts, Parents, and Guardians,

As we end our incredible scouting year, I want to take a moment to reflect on our adventures, celebrate our achievements, and look forward to the exciting opportunities that lie ahead.

Good day Troop 316,

As we approach Memorial Day, please know Scouts play an important role in honoring our nations fallen heroes.

You can do this by visiting an unknown soldier's headstone and rendering a Scout Salute.  This is a powerful way to show respect and reverence.
