Shoepac lake Campout October 3-5

I'm super excited!  It's another camping adventure!  October 3-5 Troop 1 will be going to Shoepac Lake for a Karst Field trip and campout.  What is Karst? Karst refers to a limestone region with many sinkholes, abrupt ridges, caverns, and disappearing and underground streams. Scouts will be given the opportunity to complete two merit badges Geology and Nature. We will do prerequisites for these merit badge this Wednesday and next Wednesday at our regularly scheduled meeting.  Also if you are already working on the Fishing merit badge and need to catch a fish to complete the badge, here is an opportunity for you to do that.  Scouts should bring fishing poles.  One of the requirements for the Nature merit badge is two catch 2 species of fish. Scouts under 17, can fish without a license, but they are required to observe all fishing rules and regulations.  Scouts over 18 and adults will need a fishing license.

We also need chaperones to camp and drivers to transport scouts!  So far we have Scoutmaster and Mr & Mrs. Adams planning to attend. Please let Scoutmaster know ASAP if you can camp with us to help supervise our scouts or drive (or both).
