Thank You’s & Friday Update

We wanted to take a moment to thank the leaders that made Sea Base possible, without them we would not have been able to take 17 boys. Thank you to: Jim, John, Pat, Mike, Anthony, James & Eric. 

Additionally, we would like to thank everyone who attended the trip for their donation, due to the trip overage. With that money the troop was able to purchase 6 tents & 4 first aid kits. 

Friday’s meeting will consist of teaching the scouts how to video edit, we will be putting together a video of our trip from Sea Base, so everyone that went PLEASE bring your phone/camera/memory card, so we can add your content to the video.

2nd Annual Friday the 13th Camping

The scouts loved so much the Friday the 13th screening we had last year when we were camping, that we brought it back again for this year. 

Friday night at Blue Mountain we will show Friday the 13th Part 2. Thank you to the Sammon’s for letting us use their screen & projector.

The movie is rated R, so if there are any parents who don’t want their son to see the movie, please let us know, and we will have actives for them in another room in the lodge house.

We will watch a movie every night, the other ones will be rated below R.
