  This Tuesday, December 17th will be our annual Troop Christmas party. This will take the place of our regular Troop meeting. We will start at 7pm and will likely end a little early, 8:15 or so.  Scouts and Uniformed Adults should wear their Class "A" full dress uniform with merit badge sash. We will be taking Patrol and Troop pictures so we can update the website.

  The Patrol Leaders Council  has decided to support the Toys for Tots program again this year. We are asking those families that want to participate, to bring in an unwrapped, new toy to our Christmas party. They will then be donated to the Marine Corp for distribution to local families. This toy drive counts towards the Troop's service commitment. It is strictly optional.

  At the party, we will also hold a gift exchange among the scouts. We are asking that each scout, that wants to participate, bring in a wrapped gift worth approximately $15. Gifts should have some tie to scouting or camping or at least the outdoors.. Each scout that brings in a gift will receive a gift. Note that this is a change from what we originally planned.  The PLC changed things.

  All food and drink will be supplied by the Troop committee. Most everything will be in single serve packaging as we have done through the COVID years. Scouts do not need to bring anything but themselves to the party

This week we are back on our regular schedule. We will be holding scoutmaster conferences for those ready to advance.

Our next big adventure is Winter Camp, held January 17 / 20 over the Martin Luther King, Jr holiday weekend. I know this seems a long way away but it really isn't. Don't wait too long to make up your mind. We currently have 17 scouts and 5 adults registered to attend.  This camp takes the form of a miniature (shortened) summer camp. It is merit badge focused where scouts can earn 2 to 5 merit badges. Have you signed up ?????  Please let Mr Call know if you are interested ASAP and get on that list. We will be cooking in camp with several scouts working on cooking merit badge. Total cost for the camp is $80. This includes all program fees and food cost. Again, if you want to be part of this adventure, contact Mr Call right away.
