Scouts,
Due to school, college work, and other things going on, i may not be able to keep up with the website. I noticed today that the last update i gave was back in February time period. Alot has happened in the Troop since then that bears recognition. The Pancake breakfast was a hit, as usual, and will help you guys out in the year to come, with trips and such. The camp out at Brooksby went very well, I was there for the Saturday activities and I was pleased with how well you guys found your way around; as to rescuing the lost scout, well, thats why we teach the right way to do it. There is a hike coming up to Tuckermans Ravine, and while I may not be able to go, it sounds like alot of fun and will be a great trip. Its hard to believe, but the school year is almost out, and as it closes, so does the regular scout year. The weather is getting warmer and days are getting longer. Please stay safe in the months to come. I plan on coming to as many meetings as I can, but with my Senior year work and stuff, im not sure how that will work out. In the meantime, Josh and Andrew both edit this site, so any announcements can be brought to them, and they can post them if i cant. This Sunday, the 20th, is a very good service project involving the replacing of flags at Cedar Grove Cemetery. At this point, thats pretty much all i can think of, but you guys know all the things you've done, and you should be proud of them. Hopefully i can work on the site abit more and maybe get some pictures up, but in the meantime, shoot me ideas through email or whatever and ill try and put them in.
How does everyone feel about a Winter Tent Campout?
