Shooting Sports Weekend: As noted from the current pictures on the Troop web site, we had a great weekend at Camp Sequoyah...

Thanks to Mr. Simon's photos, it's easy take a look at the activities from the time we left Brimingham until we arrived back at the Hut. Thanks to all the leaders who attended, especially Mr. Bill Bennefield and Neal Ellis for running the rifle range; Mr. Madison and Mr. Smith for running the shotgun range, and Mr. Eggers, Mr. Clark, Mr. Schock, and Mr. Morris at the archery range all the shooting sports activities were maximized. Thanks also to Dr. Nelson and Mr. Benifield for making the rifles and shotguns available for the program. Help with all the activities was also rounded out by Mr. Branin and Mr. Thompson.

The evening patrol meals were excellent including dutch oven roast beef, pork loin, ribs, and New England submarines. The weather held sunny out on both days, to include most of the boys wearing out the camp water slide for more than an hour.

OLS Graduates: Congratulations also to Mr. Elmore, Mr. Bennett, an Mr. Crabtree for completing the Outdoor Leadership Course also held the same weekend a Sequoya.

PLC and Troop Committee Meeting September 20th: Since camp tents were already up when arrived, all we had to set up were the patrol tarps in Bucks Hideout. All we had to hang at the hut were the tarps also so that the patrol and troop quartermasters aren't required for the PLC Monday, September 20. The Senior Patrol Leader, patrol leaders. and assistant patrol leaders will store the tarps that have been hung and then begin the PLC. The PLC will start at 6:30 PM. The Troop Committee Meeting begins at 8:00 PM.

Thanks for all your support and for encouraging attendance.
