We will be having a mandatory parent/leader training that will go on Friday January 31st @ 7p at Trinity. We are strongly requesting the attendance of all parents & leaders.
The troop will be going on a ski/snowboard trip Feb 7-9.
The cost will be $50/person (covers cabin rental, food for the weekend, lift ticket, ski or snowboard rental, lesson)
We need to get a idea of how many people are going no later than Wednesday evening in order to make a tentative reservation with the place & make a cabin reservation.
Please respond to this immediately and let Mike know if you are planning to attend & also how many (ie. if Eric & Phillip wanted to go let me know it would be 2 of you).
Thanks.
I want to recognize 3 scouts who were helpful to their neighbors today. Great Job Sal, Matt M, & Ryan.
If any other scouts help a neighbor please send me a pic so we can add it to this post

The third point of the scout law is Helpful.
What a better way to be helpful, than on this snow day to help those shovel who may be a bit older or sick and not able to do it themselves.
If you do help a neighbor please take a photo and send it to Mike to be posted on the website.

Just wanted to let everyone know the Windbreakers had been ordered.
We actually got one that was slightly different than the picture previously.
You can see the design below but ours is in a Navy Blue & the logo (which is below that) will be embroidered in red.
They should be delivered right before Blue Mountain.
Overall we were able to raise a few hundred dollars to use for new supplies (ie camping, sporting, etc.) Thanks. More gear to come at random points in the future.
I believe I may be missing someone who signed up & paid. If you don’t see your name (your son’s name) on this list and you singed up and paid, please contact me immediately.
We are hoping to be making our next trip to the Florida Sea Base during early 2015. In order to be eligible scouts need to be 13 years old & graduating the 8th grade in 2015.
