Hello Troop 171 Parents, Weekly Parent helpers 2023/2024

The leaders have recently discussed the meetings and feel it would be helpful if we have weekly parent helpers to keep an eye the scouts during the meetings and help with the board of reviews if needed. This will help the leaders know that scouts are safe while they are doing advancements and event planning.
