Our first Troop meeting of the year will be an overnight at the Scout Cabin on Friday, September 9. There is NO cost for this outing, but you need to register your scout, since it is an overnight outing, and because we need to know how much food to purchase. Please sign up by Friday morning. As of Wednesday we have 30 scouts registered.

The meeting portion of the evening will start at 7:00 p.m., with a report from Philmont Crew Leader, Karl Jantze, about the Troop’s experience at Philmont this summer. Scouts should arrive at 6:30 to set up tents, and to work with a leader on their books. Scouts of every rank lower than 1st Class MUST bring their books. Our leaders will be available to sign off on requirements completed at camp this summer, so books are essential. When every scout’s book is up-to-date and recorded in our tracking program, we will be better able to plan activities for the troop meetings this fall.

We will have a weiner roast late in the evening, so if your scout can’t wait to eat, he may want to have a snack before the meeting. Breakfast of donuts will be provided. Please pick up your scout by 9:00 a.m. on Saturday. Questions? Contact Nancy Hopkins.
