Growing a Crew

 I've been busy busy putting stuff together for the Aspen Mountain Rover Crew. We had our Tenderfoot testing in September (although this is an ongoing process as we get more Rovers onboard), and we will be receiving our first Squire this week!

I've also created a website for our Crew. Please go have a look! 

Aspen Mountain Rover Crew website. 

It has information on contact and how to join the Crew, along with other resources. You can even buy an AMRC shirt!

Service and Quest

It's been interesting recording my service, as I've come to realize that service has become very second-nature. That happens when you're a mom doing your best to care for your family. However, it has also made me aware of the need to serve outside my family as well. My two large "projects" have been to donate blood regularly and clean up garbage. Both are easy and fulfilling, and it's a good feeling knowing that I can give a piece of myself to someone to help them live.

My main Quest as a Knight has been to apply Rovering to my marriage. I'm trying to be more conscious of applying the Scout Promise and Law to my marriage and children, and it's helping  me and my husband find more time for each other in our crazy busy lives. 

Practical Training Strip

As you've seen from a previous post, I've started working on my practical training strip. I've done the swimming, and I've completed the advanced knots. I've been working on lashings, which are really handy for building things.  It's a good way to learn something new, and it brings me a step closer to earning my other badges.
