April

 Mulch Sale 2024:  This upcoming weekend Troops 136 and 7136 will hold their biggest fundraiser of the year.  We will meet at the park beside 4927 Snowy Creek Drive in the Creekside development.

on Friday, 4/26/2024 as close to 6pm as possible.  If anyone can get there before that, we can use help.  On Saturday, 4/27/2024, we will begin at 8am by meeting at the same park and move over to the HOA area and spread mulch.  The Troop will provide lunch on Saturday of Subs, chips, cookies, and water.  Here is a link to sign up for the type of sub that you and your scout would like.  Anyone who is working, please sign up for a sub.  Boy Scout Troop 136 and Girl Scout Troop 7136: Mulch 2024 Sub sandwich sign up (signupgenius.com).  If anyone has any questions, please reach out to me, Jason Savage or Jeff Colburn at troop136mulch@gmail.com.  If you have a truck and / or trailer, please respond to my post on the BAND App.  Remember, the mulch will stain clothes and hands so be sure to wear old clothes and gloves, dress for the weather and bring a water bottle.  

Pack 136 Campout:  Pack 136 is having their Spring campout at Camp Falling Rock on May 3-5.  If you're a den chief for the Pack and want to go help out at the Pack Campout, please let me know.

Ladies of Gantz Flower Sale:  Friday, May 10th, at 6pm, the Troop will be guarding the flowers at Gantz Park.  I will be getting a sign-up genius out for this.  This is always a fun event and you earn service hours for this event.  

Flag Placement at Green Lawn Cemetery:  On Saturday, May 25th at 9am, the Troops have been invited to place flags on the grave sites of deceased veterans at Green Lawn Cemetery.  There will be a memorial service following the placing of the flags.  More information on this to come.

Henry Ciocca Eagle Scout Project:  Henry Ciocca is asking for help on his Eagle Scout Project on Saturday, May 25th.  Henry's Eagle Scout Project is to re-work a large flower bed at the Grant Sawyer Home on Hahn Rd in Grove City.  The Grand Sawyer Home is believed to have been built in the 1830s and along with the Gantz house is on the National Register of Historic Places.  Henry will also be cleaning up the other flower beds and mulching.  Please put this on your calendar and come support Henry and the Southwest Franklin County Historical Society.  Time to be determined.

New Scout Camp out:  The troop has tentatively planned a New Scout Campout for the weekend of May 31st to June 2nd.
