Scouts and Parents – I’m still not any closer to finalizing a plan for a camp in late Summer. I asked a lot of people two weeks ago, didn’t get a definitive decision. At this point, I think it will come down to who can go, adult wise. So, if you are an adult, and you are willing and free to go the Week of July 28th or the week of Aug 4th, let me know.   Arkansas would be five days, as would the Santa Fe trip also.  Ten hour drive. Camp Fawcett would be a normal weekend trip. I also had the thought of doin ...Continue Reading

Great weekend for the Scouts – not so good for San Angelo.  If anyone experienced some damage, and could use some help from the troop, please let me know.   A reminder for the scouts from this weekend, please make sure the tents are dried well at your house.  Also make sure your packs and equipment get dried out before your store them.  Water does nasty things to good equipment.   Below is a note from our local Happy Trails Eagle Scout.  He has made some recommendations on sleeping b ...Continue Reading

Troop – Something I keep forgetting to communicate.   For Memorial Day, there is a group that places small flags on all the veteran cemetery plots at Lawnhaven cemetery. There is a huge number of service men to honor there and the group doing this service greatly appreciates the help. If there is an adult who can lead that effort I would appreciate it, I will be out of town.  Please let me know. So if you and your family will be in town, the groups will be going out to Lawnhaven Saturday morning, May 25th.&nb ...Continue Reading

Scouts & Parents - This upcoming camp is different because will have to split up for camping, since I was unable to secure enough back country camp sites.  That being said, I need six scouts that will need to camp in the state park camp sites, verses the backcountry.  We will still be using back packs and eating back pack food, it just won’t be in the back country.  Are there any scouts that would prefer to camp in the state park?  Please email me Monday if you prefer the park.  If I ...Continue Reading
