The Kimball Boys Scouts have been kept busy this summer.
The Troop started the summer off by changing officer positions. The new officer positions are:
• Jonny Serbus – Senior Patrol Leader
• Robert Spoden – Assistant Senior Patrol Leader
• William Serbus – Quartermaster
• Ethan Erpelding – Chaplain Aide
• Alex Ludlow – Troop Guide
• Mitchell Just – Historian
• Nathan Just – Scribe
Congratulations on your new roles. 
Currently, three members are working on their Eagle Scout projects, William Serbus, Jonny Serbus, and Mitchell Just.
For the months of June and July, William Serbus and Jonny Serbus worked a meat raffle at Bedrock Bar in South Haven, run by the South Haven Fire Department in conjunction with Kimball Wrestling Boosters. All proceeds raised helped William and Jonny with funding their Eagle Scout projects.
Troop members participated in a First Aid and CPR class taught by Cindy Stelten. The Troop was very thankful to Cindy for teaching the class to them because they needed this for their trip to Philmont Scout Ranch in New Mexico.
The Troop welcomed new members Blake Kiffmeyer, Tyler Kiffmeyer, Nick Spoden, and Garret Ludlow.
