Our troop is having a Leadership Planning and Training Conference starting at 5p, Friday, Feb 17th through 5p, Saturday Feb, 18th. We will camp Friday night on the grounds at COOS.
The goal of the event is to plan our troop’s activities for the balance of 2012 and into 2013. We need everyone to attend so you can share your ideas on where to go camping and the kinds of activities you would like to see. In addition to the planning, we have a number of fun activities planned – and will even squeeze in some leadership training.
More details to come. Head on over to the Event Registration page to get your name on the list.

It is mid-week and all is well at summer camp. There are a few blisters, bumps and scrapes but all else is normal. The weather is nice with a just a little rain.
The troop left this morning for summer camp without any problems. Departure was nearly on-time at 7:35a. Please check your email shortly for a new way to keep up with summer camp updates.
Summer camp is just a few weeks away. Are you prepared? Start getting yourself ready by downloading the Summer Camp Checklist from the Downloads page.
This handy checklist has everything you need to pack for summer camp. Remember what Mr. Walsh always says – “Be Prepared! It is better to have and not need than to need and not have.”
BIG THANKS to all who made the 2011 Suwannee River Trip a success! Special thanks to our River Guide Mr. Dealing and his Canoe Crew Mr. Cook, Dreher and Marcotte. Fourteen scouts experienced a great 12 mile run on the river from Lafayette Blue Springs State Park to Royal Springs Park.
A bit of rain soaked our campsite while our River Rats ran the river. This presented us with the challenge of some wet gear upon return. “Close the door on your way out” means a whole lot more when a dry sleeping bag hangs in the balance! Scouts received strong lessons in how to Be Prepared the next time.
A selection of pictures is over in the Photo Gallery and an interactive map is HERE.
