With your troop or team, including its adult leaders, participate in emergency preparedness training conducted by community emergency preparedness agencies.
We have a pair of official Boy Scout pants (zip off), size Youth Large (unhemmed) that Rylan has outgrown. Please email Deb at deb_morgan@yahoo.com if you are interested!
I need 5-6 Scouts (including at least two senior Scouts) to assist in running the Fall Camporee. This is a backpacking event near Camp Bell in the Gilmanton Scout Reservation from 7-9 October. We will practice light weight camping and will be using MRE's and denhydrated foods for the weekend. We are responsible for running the competition event on Sunday which will be similar to the Mission Impossible event we held at the Family Camp /Out last year. If you can't make both nights, I can still use your help on Sunday. Regsitration is now open.
