Our Scoutmaster reports that the bus is about an hour and 45 minutes from home (as of 10:20). Please plan to pick up your scout at about 12:05 in the Hauser parking lot. If we receive an updated estimate another Feedblitz message will be sent; if you do not receive another message, the estimate has not changed.
Our Scoutmaster reports that everything is going very well at Camp Owasippe. The scouts are working hard on merit badges, there have been NO behavior problems, and they have had no issues whatsoever. A couple of boys were homesick, but a phone call home resolved the problem, and they have been fine since. 20 scouts slept overnight on a submarine, the USS Silversides. The Pathfinder (1st Year Camper) Program has been excellent. Several scouts went tubing (behind a boat) yesterday, and their “Troop Swim” is tonight. There has been some light rain but no lightning. Aside from the hot weather, everything has been perfect. They are planning to leave Owasippe at 8:00 a.m. on Saturday and arrive home by shortly after noon. When they approach Riverside, the leader on the bus will call, and a Feedblitz notice will be sent with a more definite time, so please watch your e-mail on Saturday.

Any scouts or parents who have photos from Seabase: please send pictures to Nancy Hopkins, if you are willing to share them on the Troop website.
To our knowledge, these are the scouts who will be riding the bus TO Owasippe, but will NOT be returning on the bus. If there are other scouts who will be riding the bus only one way, please send an e-mail to Nancy Hopkins. If any of these scouts are on this list in error, and will be riding the bus BOTH ways, please let me know that as well.
