Letter to the Troop for the Diversity Ticket


For the Court of Honor in December we are going to have a Heritage Food Theme for the meeting that Night.  What we are asking the Scouts to do is to bring a Dish that reflects their Heritage, and for the scouts to speak why this is dish is important to their Heritage/Culture.
The dish should reflect one part of their culture (heritage, religious background, region of the country a relative might have grown up in why their ancestors might have made this dish.  Was this dish made only for special occasions, or because some ingredient was available in the area.
Why distribute this now?   We want the boys to have some time to do the research, think about what they want to bring, and to make sure we can setup the night well ahead of time.  Will the dish need to be heated?  Does it need to have silverware/plates to eat it? Etc.  Please take time to think about this with your scout, and return the sheet back to us by November 3rd.
We are going to have the Court of Honor in the Parish Hall on this date, so we use the ovens to heat things up if necessary, and have facilities to clean up.
