Welcome To The New Troop 427 Website!

Dear Scouts, Leaders, Families and Friends,

Troop 427 now has a brand new website in blog format that will be the home to all of our meeting and outing information as well as many pictures and our calendar. Instead of sending out many emails in large chains, we will be posting on the Troop 427 blog. All scout leaders and PLC members will have access to posting on the website.

Whenever there is an event like a campout, a post will be made just like there were emails and any follow up questions can be made as comments on the blog post.

 To stay up to date and notified you can subscribe via email, RSS Reader, or Facebook, on the right hand side. Doing this will send you notifications in your desired way every time something new is posted on our site

Advantages of the site include:

• One page that can easily be followed and referenced with all of our campout information and advice well documented (No more surfing through emails to see what food to bring next campout or what we're doing next meeting)
• It integrates with our modern day lives. Notifications aren't limited to email.
• The blog presents an archive of everything our troop accomplishes. 
• Comments on posts keep us from having bundles of emails.
• The active webpage provides an excellent way to advertise Troop 427.

I'm looking forward to trying this out with all of you! If the site does well, then awesome! If we find it's too hard or doesn't have enough benefits the PLC can vote to go back to E-mails!

Any questions please comment below!

Yours In Scouting,

427 SPL,

Ben D.
