Good evening. Please plan to pick up your popcorn and candy orders this Friday November 17th between 6:30 and 7:30 pm at Perry Junior High School Choir room 118. If you are unable to pick it up yourself, please make arrangements to have someone get it for you. Please be prompt as I will not be able to store any popcorn or candy. Thank you in advance!

Cub Scouts from Pack 4 and Boy Scouts from Troop 4 will be meeting Saturday Nov 4 at 9 AM at the New Hartford American Legion to distribute bags. We have 10 routes mapped out, (170 and 190 homes each), which covers the area between Paris Rd., Genesee St., Seneca Turnpike & Clinton Rd. Cubs and Boy Scouts will be paired up with a driver. We need everyone to help with this community good turn, including parents to drive. This part of the food drive should take about an hour. We will meet again on Nov 11 to pick up the bags with food. Ben Obernesser will be in-charge of this event.

The District FALL CAMPOREE is scheduled for October 13-15 at the Town of German Flatts Town Park on Rte. 5s east of Mohawk. Patrol leaders should plan on creating a menu and get a list of equipment at this week’s scout meeting. The theme of this event is Iron Chef, so a innovative menu should be considered. The troop will cover the cost of registration. You should figure $12 for food. We will need an accurate head count on Wednesday so that I can preregister.
All: This is a reminder that Wednesday night we will be holding our fall Court of Honor and parent’s night. Besides recognizing the scouts for their achievements, we will be inducting a new member and doing our Youth Protection Training which is required annually by National BSA. Please make every effort to be at this important meeting!
