Crossover tonight at BPUMC, New Scout Campout Apr 2-3

As a reminder:

Scouts should arrive at the Hut, Monday , March 21 in their Class A uniform w/Neckerchief between 6:30 PM and 6:40PM. We will load the bus and travel over to the Reid Crotty Fellowship Hall at the Bluff Park United Methodist Church to be present and participate in the WEBELOS crossover If your son can't make the bus trip, you can drop him off where we normally have our Troop Courts of Honor and we will bring him back on the bus to the Hut....probably between 8:00-8:15 PM.

This is an important event for the Troop as nineteen WEBELOS and their parents are crossing over to join the Troop Monday. Once we arrive back at the Hut, the Scouts will be released.

As indicated earlier, If your son has not been to summer camp with the Troop yet and is working on his Tenderfoot rank with the Troop, he needs to be attending the new Scout Campout with us on April 2 through April 3 as to work on some of his requirements and assist with the WEBELOS in setting up camp and activities. He needs to be at the Hut at 7:30 AM on Saturday, prepared to go. We will return Sunday around 10:30 AM or sooner. Uniform for the weekend will be the Class B uniform (red Troop T shirt, Scout socks, belt, and Scout shorts..He should also be prepared for cool weather in the evening and mornings. WEBELOS will be issued their red Troop T shirts on Saturday morning when they arrive.

Older Scouts and leaders have also be invited to join us to serve as guides for the weekend.

The fee for the Trip is $9.00 ( 3 meals) $4.00 (fuel) $2.00 (Oak Mountain Park Camping fee) TTL $15.00.

If you are a WEBELO parent and will not be coming on the 2-3 April trip with your son, make sure we have a copy of the BSA medical form w/copy of the medical insurance card and parental consent portion completed (he will need this for all trips in the future as well as summer camp}.
