Also, we hope to see you participate in the Alpenfest Parade on Saturday! The theme is Alpenfest 51, Filled with Family Fun and our troop's theme will be hiking. Dress in your uniform with a backpack (fill it with something light like a pillow just enough to make it appear packed without being heavy) Bring a walking stick and a water bottle. Wear a hat to keep the sun off and wear sunscreen. Let's show everyone how we can be prepared for a hike! (make sure your pack is as light as possible) Be at the dog park area after 10:15 am. Scout Leader Tabitha will be in charge of the parade.
Summer camp is around the corner! Please be at Bagley hall this Sunday, July 19 no later then 8:00 am (7:45 is better!) We plan to pack up the trailer and leave as soon as we've all arrived and paperwork is checked. Bring 2 copies of your physical form, and pack appropriately. Do not forget your water shoes. Below is a suggested summer camp list that came from the Cole Canoe Base Leaders Guide (I edited it some).
Don't forget to attend the Scout meeting and committee meeting on Sunday beginning at 6pm. This meeting is for everyone, even those not going to camp, but especially those going to camp. Please bring all camp paperwork, 2 copies of the health forms for Scoutmaster to keep. Make sure your scouts have begun to work on prerequisites for their camp merit badges. There will be a special ceremony at the meeting on Sunday. Hope to see you all there!
