Since the 35th Anniversary is around the corner we thought it would be a good idea to meet more often to make sure all ends were tied up.

So we are having another 35th Anniversary Committee Meeting this Friday at 730. It should be no longer than 30 minutes and will allow us to bring any issues or concerns to the table, while keeping us all updated as to where we stand as a collective group.

Sorry for the short notice.

For those of your joining us, we have instituted a payment deadline before a late fee goes into effect (as we have to let the caterers know and have other time sensitive things to take care of):

Postmarked or hand delivered by 3/22/13 will pay the $35/person rate

Paid after 3/22/13 or at the door will be $45/person

Payments can be made cash or check. Please make checks out to “Troop 106” and send to:

Henry Zalak

61-35 75th Place

Middle Village, NY 11379

Scouts currently registered with the troop are free. All parents and adult scout leaders are required to pay.

In less than 2 weeks we will be going on our next camping trip.

Here is the info: Location: Glen Gray in Mahwah, NJ.

Cost: $20 (for those who paid for the winter-ree you can use that money towards this trip, you just need to let Mike know immediately). If you are going the trip needs to be paid no later than the meeting this coming friday.

Date: Friday Mar 15 – Sunday Mar 17

We will be meeting at the church at 6P (prompt) on Friday Evening, and returning at approx. 2P on Sunday.

We will be staying in a cabin so scouts need to bring a sleeping bag and applicable clothing.

ALL SCOUTS need to bring their handbook.

There will be NO electronics permitted on the trip, with one exception: First Class or above scouts should bring a tablet, laptop, ipod or some similar device that can get on the internet (will be using Mike’s phone as a hotspot, so something with just wifi is fine) as it will be used for merit badge advancement (ONLY!)

No Uniforms are required for this trip.

*** WE DO NEED DRIVERS, Please reach out to Ester or Mike if you can Drive or want to attend as an adult ***

If you have any questions please feel free to reach out to Mike.

Just wanted to remind everyone of a few things about tonight:

1) We will be meeting downstairs as the cubs have their pinewood derby in the gym

2) There will be a committee meeting followed by a 35 anniversary committee meeting

3) There will be a board of review. If you/your son is ready please make sure they have everything they need to be prepared for it.

I look forward to seeing you all tonight.

For those of you who wish to come to the funeral of Anthony’s grandmother, we will be meeting at the church at 630P on Friday. This way we can car-pool and fit as many people in as few cars as possible. We will be leaving Trinity by 640P, so please be on time.

If you have any questions please contact Mike.

It is always a hard thing to go through to see a grandparent pass away.

Last night at 10P Anthony Zalak’s grandmother passed away.

We will be canceling the regular meeting on Friday.

I am personally requesting that all of you attend the funeral service. Scouting has been something that has been important to Anthony since he was a kid (just like me). As his scouting family we should be here for him and his family in their time of need. I would like any scouts that do attend to please be in full class A uniform.

Time: 7P – 9P

Location: Anastasio Funeral – (533 Lorimer Street, Brooklyn, NY 11211)

Funeral Mass is Saturday at 9:30 at Our Lady of Mount Carmel Church, in Brooklyn
