Parents and Scouts:

This information is for those going on our Trip to Dorchester.

Here are a few last minute items to get out to the group:

1. We leave Friday morning at 8:30 AM [Sharp]  CLASS A uniform [including neckerchief].  We will wear uniform up and back from Canada and also at the opening ceremony on Saturday morning.  All other times will be class B uniform.

2. Bring a sack lunch or money to buy lunch for the trip TO Canada.  We will give you $5.00 for the trip home to buy lunch.  If you need more that $5.00 to eat then plan accordingly.

3. Spending money at the event is optional.  There will be items for sale.  They will take US dollars.

4. Bring a CUP for your meal time.  We will have all other items for your meals.

5. If you wish, bring a T-shirt for the Screen printing station.  You can make a shirt for the event.

6. Electronic gizmos are allow to go on this trip.  They will stay in the vehicles and must have ear plugs.  there wont be any way to charge them, so when they run out of power, that’s it.
