Looking to get organized?
Leaders can setup their own troop Meeting Plan (calendar) in the Volunteer ToolKit system (www.gsnnj.org /MYGS/volunteer toolkit) and download it to send to their troop's parents. The Volunteer Toolkit currently has pre-populated meeting details for grades K-12 including what to bring, what to say, what to do and how long it will take to hold any particular badge earning or Journey meeting. |

Need to hold a Bridging Ceremony?
Good news! Our wooden bridge (about 4ft. long) is available. (It supports the weight of adults.) Troops have also used the Park Avenue bridge and the bridge between DPAC & the swim club. Leaders should feel free to use their imagination to even make an indoor 'symbolic' bridge. |

at (don't forget Annual Permission Slip - one per year covers all outings)
