I will be having my Eagle Project Bake Sale fundraiser at Harvest Market on Saturday, January 19th from 9 am to 3 pm.  Please donate baked goods and drop them off shortly before 9 am, or we can arrange to pick them up beforehand.  I  am also looking for scouts to help sell the bake goods, so please let me know if you  can help with that.  Scouts should be in Class A uniform and dress for the weather.  My project is to build two footbridges and a tent platform at Pulpit Rock Conservation Area. Thank you!  - Alex Fortin

We will be building a tent platform and two footbridges at Pulpit Rock Conservation Area.  Please bring work gloves, water and dress appropriately for snow, ice and possibly mud.  Lunch will be provided.  All help would be greatly appreciated so please help if you can.

Over the weekend of June 24 through 26 the Granite State Amature Radio Association will be holding the AARL Field Day Operation at Legacy Park in Bedford. You might ask what that has to do with you.  I need both Youth and Adults help with this. In a nut shell what this event is all about is an international exercise where a group of amateur radio operators (ham radio) set up a command post of sorts make as many contacts as possible within a designated 24 hour period. The tricky part is that they have to start from "ground zero"! In other words no electricity. Any power used to run their equipment must be generated by themselves. The youth help is needed mostly on Friday to help set up the antennas and the rest of the infrastructure. On Saturday they my need some help but not all that much. But you can take advantage of these knowledgeable people to get your radio merit badge well in the road to completion. Even though you are not licensed you will have the opportunity to make radio contacts (a MB requirement) through the use of a special system set up just for that purpose. On Saturday we will be providing dinner for the participants, here is where I need the Adult help. This is a Win / Win for both of organizations. We can provide service while having fun. Please contact me st gsenn@comcast.net if you are interested in taking part of this event and I will get you the details. BTW if you have other scouting friends who would be interested, the door is open to them as well. At the very least stop by and check it out.
