A few reminders/updates for all!
This weekend camping trip to Ockanickon includes the following 13 Scouts: Nate B., Tim K., Dustin W., Zach D., Jason S., Nick B., Chris B., Alec C., Joe R., Rob S., Dima B., Patrick M., & Matthew M. Please contact me immediately if this information in incorrect.
As for our Adult Leadership and Transportation we have Brian Calderwood, Dan Barber, James McKenna, Dmytro Bondarchuk, & Rick Woywod. We have a total of 18 attendees within a cabin capable of supporting 20 - what outstanding planning!!
Everyone should be at the Church on Friday Evening (2/6/09) by 5:45PM for a 6:00PM to 6:15PM departure.
Scout Sunday - Thank you to the 17 Scouts that attended. Matthew H. & Matthew M. did a great job with their readings and a special thanks to Nate B. for stepping in just minutes before the service to read. Following the service, Troop #354 was presented with an extremely generous gift from Leigh & Deborah Shull (from the Congregation). The gift was presented wishing Troop #354 continued success! I'd like a Scout to take the lead in preparing an appropriate thank you note for the Shulls - from the Troop - please see Mr. Woywod.
Next Thursday's Troop Meeting (2/12/09) we are looking for nominees for the Patrol Leader & Assistant Patrol Leader positions. Elections to be held during the following Troop Meeting (2/19/09). We need to have this process completed prior to incoming Webelos Scouts crossing-over.
The 2009 Order of the Arrow candidates will need to discuss options for the upcoming Spring Weekend, as a scheduling conflict just came to light regarding a MS Jazz concert. This conflict affects Patrick M., Dustin W., Gavin L. (our O/A Rep) & Mr. Woywod (our adult candidate). Alternate weekends exists or we can look into splitting the group. Preliminary conversations with these Scouts was leaning toward finding an alternate weekend.
2009 Summer Camp - You may think that Summer Camp is way off, but that is far from true!!! The first payment of $90 is due during our February 26th Troop Meeting - only three (3) weeks from now!!! We need to establish a headcount (Scouts & Adults), as we need to provide Trexler with this information. Remember July 26th - Aug 1st.
Parents - start thinking about Medical forms for Scouts & Adults - don't wait until the last minute to schedule Doctor visits.
Thank you - see you Thursday!!
