Summer Camp Transportation

We just wanted to let everyone know that Ester Levine would be reaching out to all the parents of scouts attending Summer Camp to arrange transportation.

We have 15+ scouts from 106 going each week.

Therefore we are asking that each parent provide transportation either up to camp or back from camp. With the price of gas and how many people we have going it is not necessary for parents to do both trips.

In the case where your son is only going for one week you would unfortunately have to make an extra trip as we dont have a way to get them up or back in between weeks 5 and 6.

Castle this Friday

Castle is a Dave and Busters type place but only bigger. They have roller skating, go carts, lazer tag, mini golf, and video games. It is off of I17 (about 10 minutes past Woodbury Commons)

We need to get a count as to how many people are going and which parents can provide transportation.

Due to the fact that it is a Friday we are attempting to see if we can leave at 3p, Instead of the 4p on the calendar.

PLEASE email Mike and let him know the following:

1) If you are going or not?

2) Can you provide transportation? If yes, how many can you fit?

3) Can you do 3P?

Thanks and see everyone Friday.

An outreach program in Queens has asked for our help in procuring school supplies to help kids of needy families get ready for the new school year. You can use the attached flyer to request donations from, neighbors, family and friends. 
 
The school supplies will be distributed at a Free Kidz Day Event in Springfield Park on August 10th.
 
Because we will be at summer camp at that time, we are looking to help out before August 3. In addition to monetary donations, they are also collecting:
 

• Bottled water

• Juice boxes

• Book bags

• Pencils

• Pens

• Rulers

• Glue sticks

• Erasers

• Binders 

• Loose leaf paper

• 24 count crayons

• 8 count washable markers

• Spiral notebooks

• Composition notebooks

 
Time spent soliciting will count towards your community service, so log your hours accordingly. Any and all help with this event, as always, is appreciated!
Please contact Mike if you have any questions.

For those of you who have been to Summer Camp before you very well know the light blue t-shirt you have received.

Well we have retired that shirt (although we still have a few left which will be given out to scouts attending camp for 2 weeks, as the shirt they get for 1 of the weeks).

I am proud to show off our new shirt. Thanks to Dawn for helping in the design and ordering.

We are getting Field Box seats which are incredibly close to the action and only $16.  Deadline is July 12th so we have time to arrange all the details. Game starts at 6PM and because its a Saturday most likely, weather permitting, going to Coney Island for a couple of hours beforehand.

Let Mike know if you are planning to attend and which part you are going to join us for ASAP, so we can group the seats together. Money can be dropped in an envelope at Eric’s house at 62-23 80th Street in Middle Village, if no one is home please put it in the mailbox. Please note on the envelope # seats and who is attending. For those going fishing this Saturday night, you can bring the money with you if you like.

Happy and Safe 4th of July,
