January Campout

Parents and Scouts:

Ok – Here it is!  The permission slip for the January campout to Camp Manatoc in Peninsula Ohio and our snow sports weekend. It will be January 16-18; leaving the church parking lot at 6 PM. 

As I have explained, the cabin we are renting will hold 24.  Those first 24 will have the opportunity to either sleep in the cabin or outside in a tent.  After the cabin is full all wishing to go will be in tents.  Just make sure you understand this and if you wish to be in the cabin be there tomorrow night and turn in your permission slip to Mr. Baughman – NOT ME.

The cost of the weekend will depend on what you are going to do.  See the linked sheet to figure out what the cost will be.  All of those going skiing or boarding will have to have a helmet, which can be rented at Brandywine.  If you have your own gear then that is fine, just let me know on the form.  There will also be another Liability form that will need to be completed.  I don’t have them as of yet, but I will make them available prior to our trip.

See you tomorrow night.

Camp this weekend

Scouts and parents:

If you are interested in attending the camp-in I need to know by Thursday noon.  I will be buying food and will have to have totals for that purpose.  I still could use some adults help if you wish to attend.

Here are the details:

Please find the permission slip for the Troop 136 Camp-In that we will have this weekend at the First Presbyterian Church.  It will be starting Friday night at 6:00 PM and go through Saturday afternoon around 2:00 PM.  Each one attending for the Saturday activity needs to bring a sack lunch [for Saturday]. 

As for the Camp-in please plan to also have:
Sleeping Pad,
Sleeping Bag
Overnight gear you may need
A snack to share

If you wish to bring a game to play it should be one that is play with others.  If you wish to participate in a Mind craft game activity please bring all of your own equipment.  As for any games or movies brought, they must be G to PG13.  AND SCOUTMASTER APPROVED.
If you wish to participate in the Nerf Gun War, then be ready.  Bring your own guns and darts.  Identify your darts and count the  darts you bring. [we will have you give us your count at check in].
If you have your name on your darts there is a chance you will get them back, BUT IT IS NOT GUARANTEED.

The cost for the weekend is $5.00 for the food [Friday night Pizza and Saturday Breakfast]  Please wear Class B uniform, BUT – HAVE YOUR COMPLETE CLASS A for the Saturday event.  The Event on Saturday is the Ohio Valley District  First Aid Competition.  Each patrol will be competing on different first aid situations.  Please plan to have your scout book for a reference.Each patrol will need to have a first aid kit, items to make splints and items to make a stretcher carry.

Thanks.

Scouts needed his weekend

Parents and Scouts:

I have two activities that were of possible interest for the Troop that will take place tomorrow.

1. At 1:45 PM Saturday, the Boy Scouts in Grove city [all troops are invited to participate] will meet at the Concorde Cemetery to honor our most recent Fallen Solider, Joseph Riley.  We will line the entrance to the cemetery as he is laid to rest.  All are invited to attend, the scouts are to be in Class A uniform.  Please plan accordingly to the weather.

We will ask you to park probably over in Kroger parking lot at Hoover and 665, then walk over to the cemetery which is just on the south east side of that intersection.  I would like to have a good representation from our troop, SO – IF you can make it please do!

2. ON another note, if any Older scouts [First class and above]  are needing service hours, they are invited to volunteer at Secret Santa tent tomorrow. They need volunteers from 4-9 pm Saturday Evening. The volunteers will help children shop for family members. Secret Santa is in the heated tent that is part of Mistletoe Market. If you wish to help on this activity please let me know ASAP

Thanks -
