This Monday will be the last meeting this school year. We will be meeting at the Fuller Park Pool.
From 7:00 – 8:00 pm, we will be doing our physical fitness requirement, since this will be our fourth week since starting. Please bring the plan you made at the beginning and the log of your exercise.
From 8:00 – 9:00 pm, we will be doing the swim test for summer camp. Please bring $4 for entry to the pool. If the weather is bad, we will need to cancel, but currently it looks like it won’t rain.
Troop 7 is having its first ever silent auction on May 22nd. The silent auction is going to help us raise funds for repairing the trailer. More details will come soon.
Our biking campout is next weekend! We will be biking about 14 or 15 miles, and possibly more for scouts who are interested. We will begin the ride at Barton Nature Area and end at Hudson Mills Metropark.
This biking trip will also meet a requirement for the cycling merit badge. If you are interested in doing the merit badge, come to the meeting tomorrow for more information.
For more details about the trip, please see the permissions slip that was sent out by email.
This Sunday the 26th is Scout Sunday. On this day, we thank the church for their continued support with our troop. Please plan on arriving at 9:00 am for early service or 10:30 am for late service.
Here is our list of campouts for this year. The campouts were decided at the recent PLC and were based on the responses we got over email from patrol members.
On Monday, May 16, we will be meeting at Mack Pool to take our swim tests. Please arrive at 7:50 PM. If you are going on the Whitewater Rafting Trip and/or Summer Camp, we strongly recommend that you come.
This memorial day weekend (May 27-30th), we are going white water rafting in West Virginia. The permission slip and waiver were sent out by email. This is our biggest trip of the year and we need the permission slips and money turned in ASAP, preferably by tonight’s meeting.
We have a lot of younger scouts attending the White Water Rafting trip this year. Many of the younger scout will not reach the height and age requirements for Sunday’s rafting adventure, (especially if the water is rough) so we will be splitting into two groups; one group doing the more advanced white water rafting and the other will either go to a water park or go on a less intense section of the river.
