Mowing Hayes Tower Cemetary and Township Hall

We will be mowing Hayes Tower Cemetery and Township Hall Wednesday or Thursday this week.

We will be needing trimmers and push mowers and maybe 1 more rider.I cannot be there until about 6:00 PM but you can start earlier.

If you can help contact Anthony @ 619-2106.

Camp Chairs - A Good Idea

A good time was had by all Scouts attending the Fly-in Camp-in at the Gaylord Regional Airport. EAA Chapter 1095 and the Gaylord Airport were great hosts.

One item few scouts brought to the Fly-in was a camp chair. Camp chairs are not on our normal gear list and they probably should be. All scouts enjoy having access to a camp chair on outings.

A camp chair would be a good item to add to every ones Summer Camp gear list. The fire ring benches and picnic tables in camp sites at Camp Greilick are fine for sitting but they are not very mobile.

WE NEED SCOUTS TO WEEDWHIP!!! Our weed whippers have not been working the past two times, and the place really needs a trim! If you have one that works, please bring it and plan to use it. This is an easy way to add the bucks to your scout account. $12 per hour!

We also need a few people to bring their riders and push mowers! Let me know what you can bring.

RAIN DATE is Thursday, June 11th.

Thanks, Valerie
