NO troop meeting but Committee Meeting tonight 6:30pm

We had one of the best attended Annual Planning Conferences we've had in a long time......the Scouts got a great deal accomplished as far as anticipating 2009..

Mr. Simon will have a first draft of the planning calendar at the Troop Committee meeting this Monday, January 5, at 6:30 PM at the Hut......Thanks especially to Mr. Simon for staying late and for Mr. Lepinkinka for staying the night with the Scouts.

There is no Troop meeting for the Scouts on January 5 owing to the planning conference and PLC this weekend.

The Committee meeting will focus on polishing and approving the draft planning calendar, a discussion of tree sales, wreath sales, popcorn and the overall budget.

The next meeting for the Scouts will be January 12 for final planning for the Ski Trip to Sugar Mountain, Jan 17-19. There won't be a quartermaster night on January 15 since we will only be taking personal gear on the trhip. There won't be a Troop meeting on January 19th but there will be a Troop Committee meeting at 6:30 PM on January 20th.

Finally, thanks to Mr. Branin and W Henson for getting some required welding done these past couple of days on the bus to assure our annual State/Federal Inspection was passed for 2009

Thanks to Mr. Simon, the finalized version of the 2009 calendar will be posted on the Web Site.
We still need Scout and Leader/parent registrations fees for 2009 mailed to Mr. Frost if you haven't at this time in order to meet that requirment also. His address is on an earlier Troop Blog and is on the Troop Roster.

Thanks for all your support in 2008. We are looking forward to 2009 more than ever.
