Hi Troop 136!
Meeting tonight 5/2:
The meeting tonight will be spreading mulch for the First Baptist Church. The address is 3301 Orders Road, Grove City. Please wear old clothes and arrive ready to start working.
Mulch Information from Jeff:
Scouts and Scouters,
I wanted to take a moment and thank everyone for their help and hard work this past weekend. It was incredible to see the amount of hard work everyone put into the mulch project! This weekend we delivered 4,000 bags of mulch and spread 2383 bags. We have 275 bags left to spread for 2 church projects. We will spread the remaining 275 at future Troop meetings.
It was a very profitable year. I do not have final numbers yet but tentatively our mulch profit is in the range of $10,000! Mulch profits will be divided amongst the boys based on the number of hours they worked.
Please let me know if you have any questions.
Thanks,
Jeff
High Adventure 2024:
Since there was so much money going out for summer camp, we decided to wait until the end of May to ask for deposits for Florida Sea Base or Philmont. There will be a $200 nonrefundable deposit to help with the down payment of the trip. There will be a monthly payment schedule set up for those going on either trip.
Upcoming events:
"The Turtle" April 29-30:
This was a muddy event for sure! We still had a great time.
Gantz Farm Overnight Service Project:
The Gantz Farm Flower Sale is happening this year on Saturday, May 13th and we will protect the flower on Friday, May 12th beginning at 6:30 pm.
We have been asked to once again help with providing a service by sleeping in the tents overnight to protect the flowers. This is a great service project. You will simply show up on Friday night around 6:30 pm with your sleeping gear. I suggest you bring a cot and a sleeping bag and plan to sleep in a tent with the flowers. We normally have several Scouts in each tent.
