The Klondike Derby is this coming weekend at the Town of Ohio Park. We will be leaving Sat around 7:30 to arrive at 8:30. We will be staying over Saturday night in the town rec center. The cost for food is $5/ person. You will need a air mattress or pad and sleeping bag. I have registered the 5 scouts who signed up at last Wednesday’s meeting. If you missed the meeting or have decided to participate, please let me know.
All We are currently scheduled to attend Camp Henderson during the 3rd week of camp July 16-22. This week of camp will be very crowded. We are considering moving to week 4 July 23-29. We need to make a decision on this ASAP. The individual $50 deposits for camp are due by Feb 15. Many of you have $$ from popcorn/candy sales which I will use as your deposit. Please respond to this email and let me know if July 23-29 is ok w/you.
