Troop 45 | Needmore, PA
The troop will meet at Coolfont Feb. 19 at 2PM to swim. Scouts can complete their swim test for the year, work on strokes for the Swimming MB, work on the snorkeling patch, or just have fun! Scouts going to SeaBase should work on endurance or snorkeling.
Former Assistant Scoutmaster Silver will lead a geocaching badge Feb. 11. Scouts who would like to complete the badge should review the requirements and get a blue card from the Advancement Chair.
We have a reservation from 5-7PM on Feb. 13. Friends and family welcome. The troop will cover scout expenses.
Bring a dozen or two cookies to our troop Christmas party. Boys who want to exchange gifts can bring one that’s about $15.
Update: The troop has a cabin rented for Jan. 21-23 March 11-13. One goal of the weekend is to help Ranger Jack with a conservation project. The hours for this will apply to the conservation award.
Summer camp is scheduled for July 10-16 at Sinoquipe.
Nov. 6 we’ll climb to the top of Jack’s Mountain and have lunch with a view. Meet at the scouthouse at 8:30. We’ll tentatively return around 3PM. Pack a lunch, water, first aid kit, sturdy shoes, good socks, and appropriate layers for cool weather.
