Please refer to the News page of the troop website for updated/current news!

Troop Meeting
Thursday @ 7:00 PM. Younger Scouts will continue to work on rank advancement and should bring their handbooks. Older Scouts will continue work on Citizenship in the Nation or continue to work on their own merit badges or on their Eagle requirements and to plan a spring Life Scout activity. $15.00 cash due for April camping.

Orienteering Course?
Many Scouts still need to complete the orienteering course requirement for advancement. If there's enough interest at Thursday's troop meeting, we can plan to meet on Saturday at Brandywine Creek State Park to complete their permanent course. Sign up on Thursday.

Camping: Tuckaho Scout Reservation (Gettysburg)
April 4-6. Tent camping. Saturday will be spent hiking the historic trails of Gettysburg. $15 and sign-ups due on March 27. Scouts must decide whether they want to do the 9-mile Billy Yank trail or both the Electric Map and the 3-mile Johnny Reb trail. Those signing up for the Electric Map must bring $4 cash to the camping trip. Adults are needed to camp so that we'll be able to transport Scouts from Tuckaho to Gettysburg; please e-mail me if you're willing to attend.

OA Spring Inductions Weekend
April 11-13 @ Henson Scout Reservation. All current OA members should register to attend, especially if you're an Ordeal member eligible for Brotherhood. Register online today! All newly elected candidates will receive their registration packets in the mail and should NOT register online. Bryan Bailey will be following up with our OA members.
