IN CONGRESS, July 4, 1776.

The unanimous Declaration of the thirteen united States of America,

When in the Course of human events, it becomes necessary for one people to dissolve the political bands which have connected them with another, and to assume among the powers of the earth, the separate and equal station to which the Laws of Nature and of Nature's God entitle them, a decent respect to the opinions of mankind requires that they should declare the causes which impel them to the separation.

Flag Fundraiser

Message:

Troop 1014 is excited to announce the launch of its 2017 Flag Fundraiser. This fundraiser involves boy scouts selling an annual subscription to display American flags on specific holidays throughout the year for businesses and homes owners. All proceeds go to the Scouts and the Troop to fund camping events and service projects throughout the community. The boys will setup and take down the flag for each flag holiday and ensure that the flags are properly stored. All of the boys in the troop are trained on how to handle and manage the flag and they'll make sure its always treated with respect. Your subscription not only helps Boy Scouts but it also makes your neighborhood look beautiful!

The annual subscription is $40 for the program which starts with Memorial Day. The flag itself is a beautiful 3x5’ American flag with a topper and is attached via a 3’ piece of rebar on top of a 7’ white PVC tube.

The following are the flag holidays included in the program

Message:

Last year, the new rank requirements were being phased in, and the BSA allowed Scouts to continue to follow the old requirements under some conditions. Beginning January of 2017, all Scouts must use the new requirements regardless of rank.

Here is a printable list of the new requirements that may be inserted in your Scout Handbook. The pages are meant to be folded and assembled into a booklet.

This document shows a side-by-side comparison of the old and new requirements.

An explanation of the transition from the old to new requirements may be found here.
