Camporee

We had a well attended meeting tonight and packed the house with Scouts, cubs, WEBELOS, and leaders. At this time it looks like we will have about 45 Scouts, 25 leaders, 16 WW I's and II's along with their parents.


Meals were planned by the Scouts...please go ahead and purchase the groceries, ice them at home, and bring them in to the Hut Friday.. You can try for space in the Hut refridgerator but space is limited. though in the past, space was ample for refriderated items..please mark them when you put them in the refriderator to avoid confusion when taken on the Trip. The Troop will underwrite the cost of the ice if you need it for perishibles before Friday night when we leave. you are welcome to use Troop ice chests on Thursday night also..but bring ice for the chests.

Thursday night is also the Troop quartermaster night in preparation for the Camporee..uniform is not required..he needs to be there at 6:30 PM. We should be gone in an hour or so.

We will meet at the Hut at 5:00 PM on Friday in preparation for departing for the camporee at Tanneyhill State Park and should return between 10:00 and 11:00 AM on Sunday. Please make sure is prepared for the weather in case cold temperatures and possibly a shower.

Haven't been on a camp out with us before? Now is a good time to visit at our campsite and check it out. There will be patrol competitions going on during the morning hours and if you can stay for the camp fire that night our Scouts will be performing a team dance at the fire as part of the Order of the Arrow invitation to increase local membership in our chapter.

Monday, February 18 will be the gear storage at 6:30 PM, the PLC at 7:00 PM, and the Troop Committee meeting at 8:00PM..uniform not required.

Thanks for all your support and for encouraging attendance.
