This coming Friday is our holiday party.

We ask that EVERYONE brings a plate/tray of something from their culture for a pot luck. It can be hot or cold. The troop will provide drinks.

If your son wants to participate in Secret Santa have him bring a wrapped gift of a maximum $15 value.

NO uniforms are required.

There will be a TLC meeting after the party for all youth leaders that are expected to attend.

Any questions direct to Mike

Holiday Pies and Cheesecakes are available this year. Orders are due to Henry by Tuesday, 12/16 with delivery at Trinity on Monday, 12/22. Order form is availalbe by clicking the link below….

2014 Troop Ie Order Form

1) NO uniforms for Philly, bring a class B if you would like.

2) Blue Mountain has been reserved from Friday Jan 16 – Monday Jan 19. We have to institute a limit as to how many people can go due to the size of space. We are putting the maximum number of attendees at 45.

The trip will be $40, and this is how sign up with go:
Sign up is now open – but its a tiered system and the backup list is on a first come first serve basis

All scouts who did a wreath selling shift are guaranteed a spot, but that spot is only guaranteed if they pay on Friday Dec 19. Also the assistant scoutmasters, scoutmaster & select active adults will be guaranteed a spot as well. If a scout or approved leader does NOT pay on Dec 19 then they run the risk of not being able to go on the trip.

Those who failed to do a selling shift, and didn’t let me know why they couldn’t before hand will go on the wait list with additional adults. Any additional adults that want to go (ie. fathers, past scouts, etc.) will go on the waiting list, which will open at 8p on Dec 19. At that point we will go through the list in order and give the opportunity to those people to pay and therefore reserve their spot.

Once we hit 45 people the trip is closed. Period.

Any questions direct to Mike.

Due to bad weather on Saturday we have about 50 wreaths left. So effective immediately we will do the following:

1) Wreaths will now be priced at 2 for $25. If someone wanted just 1 it would be $15.

2) Scouts receive $1/wreath for every wreath they sell (must sell at least 5, no longer 10), until we sell out. This gives you guys the opportunity to raise some extra money easily.

The wreaths are at John Mohr’s. Email me for his address.

Feel free to SHARE this new sale. We need to get these last ones sold.

Thanks for your help.

We have about it 45 to 50 wreaths left and need your help.

We are going to run a special promo for the scouts. Each scout will receive $1/wreath in their account (must sell a minimum of 10 wreaths), for every wreath the sell between now and when we are sold out. Previous sales do not count.

Wreaths are currently at John’s house, get in contact with him or I for more info.

Today is a beautiful day, we NEED to get word out about where we are selling.

PLEASE COPY & PASTE the following into your various social media accounts, with the picture attached below:

We will be selling at:
Saturday, 12/6
Met Food
79-15 Eliot Ave. Middle Village

A few things to cover:

1) I unfortunately will be around but not available this weekend (work is crazy). John Mohr will be the point person. If at any point any of our selling stations are running low or there is a general question you can reach out to him. His cell is 917.842.6353.

2) We have a lot of wreaths left to sell. I ask that all parents take a moment to post the following picture on social media with our selling times, to help drive sales

3) Selling schedule has changed. Unfortunately, due to lack of scouting signing up, we have to cancel the 1-4 shift at Met Food & Artis Drugs tomorrow (Sat). The selling shifts will be as follows:
Met Food & Artis Sat – 10a – 1p
RA Sat 530p – 7p
Met Food & Artis Sun – 10a – 1p & 1p – 4p
Trinity Sun 9a – 12 noon
RA Sun 10A – 1p

Any questions you may have you can send me, but would be best to reach out to John as he will be more promptly available the next 2 days.

We will set a record again this year with 36 dozen wreaths sold, Lets Rock n Roll this weekend.

Thanks.

Every scout is responsible for buying 3 wreaths &  doing 1 selling shift. We have multiple scouts who have yet to purchase or sign up for a selling shift.

With this being our only fundraiser for the year, everyone’s participation is essential. If you fail to purchase 3 wreaths, you will still be billed for the full price of the 3 wreaths.

Hey everyone. I just got a text from Henry asking if anyone could come help (at trinity) at 3p to unload the wreath truck. Sorry for the last minute message, I just found this out.

Thanks.
