If you were able to do this, please consider yourself lucky. There are plenty of individuals and families out there that rely on the good nature of others to put food on their plates. In some instances, that food is coming from local food banks. </p> <p>Unfortunately during these crazy times, food banks begin to run dangerously low on supplies. In response to this Star Scout, Landon Hummel from Troop 1378 in Dale City, VA decided to organize a “no contact” food drive. Landon contacted the <strong><a href="https://afac.org/locations/arlington-food-assistance-center/">Arlington Food Assistance Center (AFAC)</a></strong> and obtained information on how to get the food to them safely. He then made a flyer, sent out an email to his Troop with instructions and all the information about the drive. <br /><br />Sunday March 29th, the Landon and his mother drove around the Prince William County area to collect donations. They created a route using the addresses in all of the reply emails in order to give participants a time frame for pickup. They maintained social distancing by asking participants to leave their donations outside and just wave to us from the window. With the assistance of his mom, he collected 162 pounds of food for the Arlington Food Assistance Center.</p> <p>To learn more about how you can give please visit the <a href="https://afac.org/locations/arlington-food-assistance-center/">Arlington Food Assistance Center website</a>. Items that they are specifically asking for are: canned tuna/chicken, canned soups, canned vegetables, canned tomatoes, peanut butter (in plastic jars only), pasta and rice. </p> </div><footer class="entry-footer"><p class="entry-meta"><span class="entry-categories">Filed Under: <a href="https://weownadventure.com/category/scouting-at-home/" rel="category tag">Scouting At Home</a></span> <span class="entry-tags">Tagged With: <a href="https://weownadventure.com/tag/food-drive/" rel="tag">food drive</a>, <a href="https://weownadventure.com/tag/helpful/" rel="tag">helpful</a>, <a href="https://weownadventure.com/tag/scouting-at-home/" rel="tag">scouting at home</a>, <a href="https://weownadventure.com/tag/scouts-bsa/" rel="tag">Scouts BSA</a></span></p></footer></article><article class="post-2593 post type-post status-publish format-standard has-post-thumbnail category-scouting-at-home tag-merit-badges-at-home tag-scouting tag-scouting-at-home entry" aria-label="COVID-19 Stay at Home Family Kits" itemscope itemtype="https://schema.org/CreativeWork"><header class="entry-header"><h2 class="entry-title" itemprop="headline"><a class="entry-title-link" rel="bookmark" href="https://weownadventure.com/covid-19-stay-at-home-family-kits/">COVID-19 Stay at Home Family Kits</a></h2> <p class="entry-meta"><time class="entry-time" itemprop="datePublished" datetime="2020-04-29T16:03:29+00:00">April 29, 2020</time> by <span class="entry-author" itemprop="author" itemscope itemtype="https://schema.org/Person"><a href="https://weownadventure.com/author/ncac_adm/" class="entry-author-link" rel="author" itemprop="url"><span class="entry-author-name" itemprop="name">Zachary Leka</span></a></span> </p></header><div class="entry-content" itemprop="text"><p>As a member of Troop 642 in Orange County, CA, I’ve been fortunate that the NCAC Merit Badges @ Home sessions are open to Scouts nationwide!</p> <figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" width="1024" height="768" src="https://weownadventure.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/04/kitsready-2-1024x768.jpg" alt="" class="wp-image-2596" srcset="https://weownadventure.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/04/kitsready-2-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https://weownadventure.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/04/kitsready-2-300x225.jpg 300w, https://weownadventure.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/04/kitsready-2-768x576.jpg 768w, https://weownadventure.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/04/kitsready-2-1536x1152.jpg 1536w, https://weownadventure.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/04/kitsready-2-840x630.jpg 840w, https://weownadventure.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/04/kitsready-2.jpg 2016w" sizes="auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px" /></figure> <p> I was inspired during a virtual Family Life merit badge class to do a family community service project to help with the COVID-19 pandemic. We partnered with People Assisting the Homeless (PATH) and prepared 20 COVID-19 Stay at Home Family Kits for families facing homelessness who are staying in a shelter, motel, or RV. The kits included diapers, wipes, soap and shampoo, baby formula, non-perishable snacks and at-home activities for kids such as books, craft kits, art supplies and puzzles. Many of these families do not have a car, access to the Internet or much money, so its difficult to shop online or do take-out or curbside pick up for essential items. </p> <figure class="wp-block-gallery columns-3 is-cropped wp-block-gallery-2 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex"><ul class="blocks-gallery-grid"><li class="blocks-gallery-item"><figure><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" width="768" height="1024" src="https://weownadventure.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/04/StayatHomeKits-0-768x1024.jpg" alt="" data-id="2594" data-full-url="http://weownadventure.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/04/StayatHomeKits-0.jpg" data-link="https://weownadventure.com/covid-19-stay-at-home-family-kits/stayathomekits-0-jpg/" class="wp-image-2594" srcset="https://weownadventure.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/04/StayatHomeKits-0-768x1024.jpg 768w, https://weownadventure.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/04/StayatHomeKits-0-225x300.jpg 225w, https://weownadventure.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/04/StayatHomeKits-0-1152x1536.jpg 1152w, https://weownadventure.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/04/StayatHomeKits-0-473x630.jpg 473w, https://weownadventure.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/04/StayatHomeKits-0.jpg 1512w" sizes="auto, (max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px" /></figure></li><li class="blocks-gallery-item"><figure><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" width="768" height="1024" src="http://weownadventure.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/04/OrganizingKits-1-768x1024.jpg" alt="" data-id="2595" data-full-url="http://weownadventure.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/04/OrganizingKits-1.jpg" data-link="https://weownadventure.com/covid-19-stay-at-home-family-kits/organizingkits-1-jpg/" class="wp-image-2595" srcset="https://weownadventure.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/04/OrganizingKits-1-768x1024.jpg 768w, https://weownadventure.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/04/OrganizingKits-1-225x300.jpg 225w, https://weownadventure.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/04/OrganizingKits-1-1152x1536.jpg 1152w, https://weownadventure.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/04/OrganizingKits-1-473x630.jpg 473w, https://weownadventure.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/04/OrganizingKits-1.jpg 1512w" sizes="auto, (max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px" /></figure></li><li class="blocks-gallery-item"><figure><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" width="768" height="1024" src="http://weownadventure.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/04/PATH-delivery-3-768x1024.jpg" alt="" data-id="2597" data-full-url="http://weownadventure.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/04/PATH-delivery-3.jpg" data-link="https://weownadventure.com/covid-19-stay-at-home-family-kits/path-delivery-3-jpg/" class="wp-image-2597" srcset="https://weownadventure.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/04/PATH-delivery-3-768x1024.jpg 768w, https://weownadventure.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/04/PATH-delivery-3-225x300.jpg 225w, https://weownadventure.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/04/PATH-delivery-3-1152x1536.jpg 1152w, https://weownadventure.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/04/PATH-delivery-3-473x630.jpg 473w, https://weownadventure.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/04/PATH-delivery-3.jpg 1512w" sizes="auto, (max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px" /></figure></li></ul></figure> <p>This project was a good way for my family to work together, help others, and show our Scout spirit during the Stay at Home orders! Some of my friends helped too. Their parents dropped off donations on my front porch or had donations delivered directly to my house from Amazon. We used extra safety precautions by washing our hands regularly, disinfecting donations, and wearing masks while unpacking and delivering the kits for distribution. We hope these essential items will help families stay safe!

At this campout, we welcome the Webelos scouts that have crossed over to the troop. We also introduce the new scouts to several Scout and Tenderfoot rank requirements. Requirements include:</p> <ul> <li>What the Scout Oath, Law, Motto, and Slogan are and what they mean</li> <li>What is the Scout leadership hierarchy</li> <li>A explanation of the Patrol method</li> <li>Demonstration of how to tie the square knot, two half-hitches, and the taut-line hitch</li> <li>What should be in a personal first aid kit</li> <li>A list of equipment and clothes needed for a campout</li> <li> How to pitch a tent</li> </ul> <p>Because of the COVID pandemic and state and BSA rules that do not allow large gatherings, a campout was not an option this year. In order to support the new Scouts as they begin their BSA Scouting careers, Troop 496 held a virtual campout using Zoom. Ten new boys, representing the Trolls patrol, participated in this campout. Troop 496 was honored to have four girls, representing the Artemis patrol, join the campout this year. These girls will be the core of the new BSA Girls Troop forming here in Poolesville.</p> <p>The campout was led by the Troop SPL, Zach Ransom. The SPL was assisted by several older Scouts covering 10 different requirements. After the on-line portion of the campout, several of the Scouts took on the challenge to pitch a tent in their back yard and then spend the night in the tent that they pitched. The next day, the participants again met on Zoom to participate in a “Roses, Buds, and Thorns” exercise.</p> </div><footer class="entry-footer"><p class="entry-meta"><span class="entry-categories">Filed Under: <a href="https://weownadventure.com/category/scouting-at-home/" rel="category tag">Scouting At Home</a>, <a href="https://weownadventure.com/category/programs/" rel="category tag">Scouting Programs</a></span> <span class="entry-tags">Tagged With: <a href="https://weownadventure.com/tag/family-campout/" rel="tag">family campout</a>, <a href="https://weownadventure.com/tag/scouting-at-home/" rel="tag">scouting at home</a>, <a href="https://weownadventure.com/tag/troop/" rel="tag">troop</a></span></p></footer></article><article class="post-2598 post type-post status-publish format-standard has-post-thumbnail category-scouting-at-home tag-family-scouting tag-scouting-at-home tag-stem tag-stem-scouts entry" aria-label="STEM@Home Speaker Series: Join the Conversation!" itemscope itemtype="https://schema.org/CreativeWork"><header class="entry-header"><h2 class="entry-title" itemprop="headline"><a class="entry-title-link" rel="bookmark" href="https://weownadventure.com/stemhome-speaker-series-join-the-conversation/">STEM@Home Speaker Series: Join the Conversation!</a></h2> <p class="entry-meta"><time class="entry-time" itemprop="datePublished" datetime="2020-04-29T15:53:27+00:00">April 29, 2020</time> by <span class="entry-author" itemprop="author" itemscope itemtype="https://schema.org/Person"><a href="https://weownadventure.com/author/ncac_adm/" class="entry-author-link" rel="author" itemprop="url"><span class="entry-author-name" itemprop="name">NCAC STEM Committee</span></a></span> </p></header><div class="entry-content" itemprop="text"><p>Every Thursday at 7PM, you can join our virtual STEM@Home Speaker Series!</p> <p>We will host conversations with STEM professionals, activities and virtual games (including one with virtual reality!).

I learned to fly after joining the Air Force in college, and they are always on the lookout for people with an interest in STEM. Learning to fly was a lot of studying the technical aspects of flight, combined with a lot of “hands on” work in the airplane, learning to takeoff and land, and learning how airplanes handle in the air. I’ve been flying since 1989, and I’m trained in eight different airplanes, including Remotely Piloted aircraft, like the Predator drones that the Air Force used to fly (they now have bigger and better versions).”</p> <p>Image Credit for Dr. Stanley Fricke: Children’s National Hospital<br>Image Credit for Dave DuHadaway: NCAC</p> </div><footer class="entry-footer"><p class="entry-meta"><span class="entry-categories">Filed Under: <a href="https://weownadventure.com/category/scouting-at-home/" rel="category tag">Scouting At Home</a></span> <span class="entry-tags">Tagged With: <a href="https://weownadventure.com/tag/family-scouting/" rel="tag">Family Scouting</a>, <a href="https://weownadventure.com/tag/scouting-at-home/" rel="tag">scouting at home</a>, <a href="https://weownadventure.com/tag/stem/" rel="tag">STEM</a>, <a href="https://weownadventure.com/tag/stem-scouts/" rel="tag">STEM Scouts</a></span></p></footer></article><article class="post-2569 post type-post status-publish format-standard has-post-thumbnail category-scouting-at-home tag-arrow-of-light tag-cub-scouts tag-leaders entry" aria-label="Cub Scouts Keep Advancing Despite Lockdown" itemscope itemtype="https://schema.org/CreativeWork"><header class="entry-header"><h2 class="entry-title" itemprop="headline"><a class="entry-title-link" rel="bookmark" href="https://weownadventure.com/cub-scouts-keep-advancing-despite-lockdown/">Cub Scouts Keep Advancing Despite Lockdown</a></h2> <p class="entry-meta"><time class="entry-time" itemprop="datePublished" datetime="2020-04-28T18:52:46+00:00">April 28, 2020</time> by <span class="entry-author" itemprop="author" itemscope itemtype="https://schema.org/Person"><a href="https://weownadventure.com/author/ncac_adm/" class="entry-author-link" rel="author" itemprop="url"><span class="entry-author-name" itemprop="name">Brett Coffee</span></a></span> </p></header><div class="entry-content" itemprop="text"><p>The boys from Dens 6 and 7 from Troop 1344 in Burke, Va. were able to complete one of their Arrow of Light Adventures last week, despite being in lockdown to address COVID-19.</p> <p>The boys had already completed most of their requirements for the Build a Better World Adventure and had scheduled a meeting with Supervisor Pat Herrity of the Fairfax County Board of Supervisors to meet the final requirement.

Many parents joined on the conference as well, and Supervisor Herrity told all the boys how important it was to keep on the path to Eagle Scout.</p> <p>Not only are the Dens continuing advancement (with an online science experiment also scheduled for later this month and many boys targeting the Townes Supernova science award), but Pack 1344 Cubmaster Chris Yurasko is leading video Scoutmaster minutes and other dens are organizing virtual Den meetings and completing requirements.</p> <p>Doing their best to deal with a challenging situation, Pack 1344 is charging ahead to ensure that the boys have fun activities, and keep advancing and learning.</p> </div><footer class="entry-footer"><p class="entry-meta"><span class="entry-categories">Filed Under: <a
