PLC Meeting, Service Project, SPL and Backpacking


Hi Troop 136!

PLC Meeting:
PLC meeting today at 4:30 pm.  Plan to be there to review the plan for November and plan the events in December.

Service Project:
November 5th (6 - 7 pm) We will NOT meet on this night!  We were able to cut, sand and paint the pieces last week.  Since the church will be used for voting, we will meet again on November 12th.  They look really nice!
November 12th (6 - 7 pm) We will meet to paint the other side of the nativity scene
The display will be setup at some point determined by the church.  I will share with you the details of the event when I find out.

Popcorn Kernel:
I just want to say thank to John for being our Popcorn Kernel again.  I really appreciate it a lot!  Thanks again!

Nominations for Senior Patrol Leader:
We will again take nominations for SPL in case a scout was not present last week and still wanted to be nominated.  We will vote on Tuesday night using the clickers.  Once the SPL is elected, he will choose his staff.  If you are running for SPL, be thinking about who you want to be with you on your PLC.  We will then take nominations for the Patrol Leaders on 11/12.  These votes will take place on 11/12.

Backpacking at Zaleski November 8 to November 10:
We are traveling to Zaleski next month for the backpacking trip.  This is a great event for first time scouts backpacking and for older scouts who have been backpacking.  Be prepared to take a short hike on 11/5.  All of the scouts will go on this short trip, whether they are going on the weekend trip or not.  Plan to bring some type of backpack for the event.
What if your scout does not have a backpack?  We have several of them that have been donated by previous scouts.  We will get these backpacks out  again at the meeting.  The scout will take the backpack they are borrowing with them pack their gear for the trip.  The backpacks will be available for you to borrow on a first-come, first-serve basis.  
We will leave the church on Friday, November 8 at 5:30 and be back around noon to 1 pm on Sunday.

Here is a good place to see a backpacking list:  https://50miler.com/backpacking-pack-list/

If you are still reading this, thanks for sending me a message last week.  I will share those that responded at the committee meeting and we will have a drawing for the winner.
