Hog Roast/Tag Sale, Arts in the Alley Parade, Shootout, Camporee and Backpacking


Hi Troop 136!

Tag Sale:
We have a big weekend ahead of us!  In case you thought you were not needed, think again! We need your help!  Below is an online form that you can use to help sign up for slots to help with the Hog Roast and Tag Sale!  This will help you see where we need help.  This is a huge fundraiser for our troop!  Plan to spend some time on Friday and/or Saturday making this a successful event.  Our sign is up!

Arts in the Alley Parade:
Scouts will be walking again in the parade this Saturday.  Please plan to meet at the CVS parking lot at 8:30.  I will have a huge flag the scouts can carry.  This is also something the scouts can sign up to do and receive one service hour.  

Three Eagles Shootout Event - October 5th
The feedback from the troop for the PLC meeting determined that a lot of scouts wanted to go shooting.  Attached in the pdf with additional information.  We will meet at the church on Saturday, October 5th and drive down that morning.  Once the event is done, we will drive back to the church.  The event will cost $15 ($10 for the shooting and $5 for lunch).

Fall Camporee October 25-27:
The Fall Camporee will be held at the Mount Oval Farm again.  This is a great event and there will be partial merit badge opportunities in the morning and activities in the afternoon.  It is a great event and a lot of fun for everyone involved.  This is the next campout that a scout can work on some of the camping and cooking requirements within their patrols and as a troop. 

Zaleski State Park Backpacking Trip November 8-10
One of the items the scouts in the PLC wanted to continue was a backpacking trip.  This is a great way to get a lot of the Second Class and First Class requirements completed.  This is also a great way to begin the hiking needed for the Hiking and Camping Merit Badges.


Troop Meeting Plans:
Here are the Troop Meeting Plans created by the PLC (Any grammatical errors or ideas have not been fixes purposefully)
9/25 - Court of Honor (I need someone that wants to MC the event for the Communications Merit Badge Requirement)
10/29 - The PLC will finish planning this at the next PLC Meeting on 10/6
