Troop News

The Trip went very well and we returned on time. Thanks to all the leaders who participated and made it possible. I can't remember a better trip for whitewater rafting.

Tonight, all Troop Quartermasters and all Patrol Quartermasters are required at the Hut for taking down and storing gear. Quartermasters are listed on the recently mailed Position list as part of the last Court of Honor in April. Please make the Scout a copy and encourage his attendance whether they were on the trip on not. We meet at 6:30 PM. Uniform is not required. The Patrol Leaders Conference is at 7:00 PM. That includes all patrol leaders and assistant patrol leaders along with the Senior and the Assistant Senior Patrol Leader.

The Troop Committee meets at 8:00 PM following the PLC also at the Hut. We will be discussing business as well as the August Trip. If you have a Ski Boat and are willing to use it..please make sure you attend for your input so we can come up with a final location and schedule of activities..If skiing will not be possible, then the PLC and Committee will discuss alternatives. If you haven't been active with the Committee, this is a good time to start and enjoy the adventure along with us.
