Brotherhood

ALL: We will be leaving for the International Brotherhood Camporee in Morrisburg Ontario, Canada on Friday for the weekend. At this point, we have 4 adults planning to attend. We have 5 seats for scouts. I believe 7 scouts showed interest in going. We will need at least one more adult who is willing to stay for the weekend. We will be making final plans next Wednesday at the Troop meeting. The cost is $12/ person for food.

Annual Planning Meeting

We had originally scheduled the leaders kick off meeting for Weds Aug 23.  Due to a conflict, this important meeting is being moved to Monday August 21 at 6pm at the Obernesser residence 5027 Albrecht Rd Rome NY.  We will be setting up the annual calendar of events, looking at a MB schedule etc.   This meeting is open to all leaders and parents.  The SPL,  ASPL and PL are also welcome.  I will need a good head count by Fri August 18.  I will provide meat, rolls, drinks and condiments.  Attendees are requested to bring a small dish to pass or desert.  Please RSVP

Thanks
Paul O.
