Campout
Thanks
The
troop had a
very fun
weekend of
camping and
teamwork. Each
patrol did very
well in
organizing,
setting up
camp, cooking,
etc.... Many
thanks to the
adults who
helped - from
those who took
the Scouts
shopping to the
drivers, and
most
importantly to
the adults who
went on the
campout. Our
SPL Dhillon,
and ASPLs Avi
& Jeremy
lead the troop
quite
successfully.
The individual
patrols
prepared very
good
meals.
The
weather on
Sunday at Los
Mochos was
stunning. Clear
and sunny
during the day,
with a
sparkling
starry night.
It was exciting
to see a fox
explore the
perimeter of
out campsite
during our
campfire.
We
have another
outing
scheduled on
March 3 &
4. That would
be the Klondike
Derby. With the
lack of snow,
we will likely
go with an
alternative
outing as we
discussed at
the last PLC.
However, I
cannot attend
an outing that
weekend due to
family
commitments. If
any adults can
be available to
help our Scouts
for those
dates, please
contact me. The
other
experienced
leaders and I
would be happy
to assist you,
and explain the
"how to" of
supporting a
Scout activity.
The activity
can be another
campout or a
day
hike.
Again,
great job this
weekend Scouts!
(Especially the
Scouts who made
a wilderness
shelter and
SLEPT in
it).
Yours
In
Scouting,

Troop
Merit Badge
Counselors
To
all our current
and newly
appointed
counselors,
please review
the troop merit
badge counselor
list located
under the
Members
section and
make sure your
information
listed is
current. If you
are a new
counselor,
please let Skip
know so he can
include you on
the roster. For
those adults in
our troop who
are looking for
a way to get
involved, being
a merit badge
counserlor is
one
opportunity.
You will need
to be trained
and submit a
BSA application
along with the
merit badge
counselor
application
that includes
the list of
merit badges
you believe you
are qualified
to teach. I do
not know when
the next
training will
be held, if
there is any
one who knows
please forward
that
information to
the troop. The
University of
Scouting was
one opportunity
but
unfortunately
it has passed.
There maybe
another
opportunity
this Saturday
at the Merit
Badge
Extravaganza.
To
access the list
requires the
troop password.
If you do not
know, please
let me know and
I will forward
that
information to
you.
Yours
In
Scouting,
John
Gillen
Committee
Chair, Troop
