Allyhoo is an animal-shaped pillow custom handmade by
Ally and her team as well as volunteers
like you. When you order an Allyhoo, you receive your own custom, cuddly character and a twin will be donated to a patient at Children’s Hospitals & Clinics – Minneapolis in your name!
Each Allyhoo is made of 100% fleece and is filled with 100% premium polyester fiberfill.
Every Allyhoo comes with a registration certificate that allows both you and the patient to independently register and name your Allyhoo on
the
Allyhoo.com. |
| |
| The Allyhoo team will be set up at
this month's Scoutmaster Bucky Event
looking for help in filling the high
demand of the Holiday season. They will
be set up for cutting material and
stuffing Allyhoos and need your help. If
you can't help with your time, you can
always help monetarily by making
a donation for the cost of materials,
or even
purchase your very own Allyhoo. |
Donations are accepted on the
Allyhoo.com website or you can make
a cash donation at the event. You
may also
purchase an Allyhoo online or at the
event. |
|
| While not required, to help measure
interest in helping (anyone; kids and

How to fill out a blue Card
|
Nothing creates more questions here at Scoutmaster Bucky than
Blue Cards.
Scoutmaster Bucky is proud to offer a comprehensive
Merit Badge Application (Blue Card) Instruction Guide - aka "How
to Fill Out a Blue Card". This document is a guide for both
Youth Scouts and Adult Scouters and Merit Badge Counselors
alike. The guide was put together to help anyone and everyone involved
in the handling of Blue Cards in understaning the proper steps
and process, as well as each person's roles and
responsibilities.
(Click
here to download Scoutmaster Bucky's - How to Fill Out a Blue
Card Document).
Let Scoutmaster Bucky know what you think. Was this guide
helpful? Any questions, clarifications, or corrections? Send me
your questions and watch this section for updates.

Excerpt from 1918 electricity merit badge
pamphlet
|
|
"There is only one rule in the world, and it
applies to all professions, and that is that you are expected to
'make good'. No excuses are allowed in this school of
life, and the only way to make good is to keep faith. This
the reason I like the idea of the Boy Scouts - because of their
secure notion of being responsible to society. They are
responsible to the people who live around them - to help
maintain the standards of order and fidelity upon which the
community depends."
(signed) Woodrow Wilson
President of the United States of America
