It seems that every weekend has activities for the Scouts - a 20 mile hike, Mt. Lafayette, the PawSox weekend, OA Conclave, OA Ordeal, our Beaver Day campout at Chesterfield and JLT. There are so many activities available for the boys to participate in. I hope to see all of you at these events. </span><br /></p> <p><span style="font-family:Times New Roman;font-size:100%;">It’s hard to believe that Summer Camp is just 2 months away. As the Chairman of the Council Camping Committee, I know this year’s program will be one of the best in years! There will be some new faces on staff and some familiar faces - yes, Mr. Zissell is back again this year. There are a few additional merit badges being offered this summer, but all the favorites are still there (no partials!!). Scouts who are not yet First Class will be attending a new and improved Brownsea program (I think they’re changing the name).</span><br /></p> <p><span style="font-family:Times New Roman;font-size:100%;">This year, the Troop will be moving Camp 57 from Rifle Ridge to Frontier. Frontier is set-up a little better for a Troop our size. Mr. Desjardins, Mr. Lamontagne and I visited both sites this past weekend to see what the damage was from the ice storm. Rifle Ridge looks like a battlefield. There are many, many trees down and a lot of the tent platforms have been damaged. Frontier had some trees down, but not as bad as Rifle Ridge. Don’t worry, by the time camp begins, the site’s will be ready for us.</span><br /></p> <p><span style="font-family:Times New Roman;font-size:100%;">More information will be coming out shortly about merit badge sign-ups, the swim test and tent buddies. Don’t forget to schedule your physicals. The medical forms are available on our website.</span><br /></p> <p><span style="font-family:Times New Roman;font-size:100%;"><i>Ottenbottenlittledottenittenbi<wbr>ttenlittledittenishbittle</i></span></p> <p><span style="font-family:Times New Roman;font-size:100%;"><i>deottendottenbodoskeedeetendot<wbr>tenwhatatenchu</i></span><br /></p> <p><span style="font-family:Times New Roman;font-size:100%;">That’s it for now,</span></p> <p><span style="font-family:Times New Roman;font-size:100%;">Mr. Walz</span></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><span style="font-family:Times New Roman;font-size:100%;"><br /></span></p> </div> </div><input id="gwProxy" type="hidden"><!--Session data--><input onclick="jsCall();" id="jsProxy" type="hidden"><div id="refHTML"></div><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6715375918788900630-6827282350055122266?l=bt57.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Jim Desjardinsnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6715375918788900630.post-21190408279128996982009-05-04T07:11:00.000-07:002009-05-04T07:17:12.177-07:00Hello everyone, Welcome to the Scoutmaster's minute, A place to get the latest Happenings and recognition from your Scoutmaster.
