HAPPY HOLIDAYS!

As a reminder, we will not meet again until Monday, January 4th.

Got an announcement to be made at the opening or closing of a Monday meeting? Please send it to Braden Wright, our Senior Patrol leader. Braden has asked that we streamline announcements and delegate more to the youth leadership. Perfect. If you have an announcement, to be made at a meeting, please send it, ahead of time, to Braden.

Of course, you are welcome and encouraged to continue to use the Troop's email list and this website to convey announcements outside of our regular meetings.

If you sold $1,000,000 or more of popcorn this year, you will get the chance to toss a virtual pie at a likeness of your Scoutmaster on December 14th. :) Pies fly just before closing on Monday night! This is also the night of the great "White Elephant" gift exchange. Be thinking about your "age-appropriate" gift. Patrol food assignments: Hawk (sodas), Flying Monkey's (chips) Anteater and Platypus (sweets)

Get your game on! Tomorrow night,we are headed to Robious Sports and Fitness for our annual lock-in. If you think that you have what it takes to lead your fellow Scouts to victory in the great adults versus Scouts basketball game, bring it on! If not, not to worry, come anyway for fun, food, and fellowship! Don't forget that we'll have access to the swimming pool for part of the night.

If you haven't submitted your permission slip or paid your fee, bring them tomorrow night. See you there!

If any parent is at least available for driving, please leave a message at our email during the holiday-we won't catch up with it until Sunday night.

We estimate the need for about 4 or 5 drivers to transport scouts to WalMart, and since we the Uitvluchts will be away from Wednesday nite til Sunday nite, we will not be able to respond til then. Please communicate IF you are able to help; some phone calls will probably ensue once we have returned. Happy Thanksgiving everyone.

Thank you, Pete Uitvlucht

On Wednesday, November 18th, the Boy Scouts of America announced that Fayette County, West Virginia would become the home of future Scout Jamborees. Construction will have to begin quickly for the site to be ready for its first Jamboree in the Summer of 2013.
