Car parking and popcorn

Hello everyone, Friday night from 5-9 we will be selling popcorn in front of Kroger. Please remember each scout needs to do a shift of popcorn sales for their scout spirit part of their advancement. Saturday the Devious Ducks will be parking cars from 6am to 10am. If your scout has missed their turn this is the last patrol time to make it up. One shift is also needed for the scout spirit part of advancement as well. The next two parking shifts will be for northern tier participants to split up.

Car Parking and Popcorn

Hello everyone, I hope this email finds you well. This weekend the Kool Aid Men patrol (Gavyn S., Connor C., Marc C. Fin and Mac C.) have car parking details. The shifts are from 12-2 and 2-4. If your scout can not make their scheduled car parking and can make this one, let us know.
We also have a popcorn show and sale this weekend from 10-2 at Kroger. Scouts need to do at least one shift of popcorn sales.
Thanks Ben Stepp Scoutmaster

CANOE TRIP ~

Hello All, I hope this email finds you well. Saturday we will have our first campout of the semester. There is one change from Mr. Jamie’s Email, Sunday pick up will be at the church at 1PM instead of at the campground. This will give us some time to work on a few skills, and do a worship service before we depart. The scouts who were choses as quartermasters have been given their funds and their grocery lists. We will be taking up phones, so if the boys want to take pictures they need to bring a relatively inexpensive camera that is not part of a phone.
Packing list for this trip
Scouts need to be in swim trunks, swim shirt, hat, sunglasses, and water shoes at drop off, First part of the list needs to be packed in a small bag separate from the other gear as it will go in the canoe full Water bottle, 32oz nalgene type Mess kit with spork or fork or spoon\ sunscreen pocket size notepad and pencil/Pen in a waterproof ziplock bag fishing pole and bait (optional) Bug Spray Water filtration system (if they have one) Snack
