If you are going on the Winter Trek, please remember to pay for the trip prior to departure, not in the parking lot of the church..  Thanks

Due to the large number a adults signed up to go to the Winter Trek, we are at full capacity for the trip.  Unfortunately, we have 2 additional Scouts that would like to attend the outing.  If anyone is on the fence about going and would like to bow out, please let me know. 

As announced at the last Troop Meeting, the Citizenship in the World (Eagle Required) Merit Badge will be starting shortly.  This Merit Badge will run over the next month or so with only a few Saturday or Sunday Meetings planned hopefully to finish up prior to the start of the Spring Merit Badges.   The Merit Badge Work Book and several resources are available to you on-line through the foillowing link at:  http://meritbadge.org/wiki/index.php/Citizenship_in_the_World   and copies of the Merit Badge Workbook have also been provided below for download in both a PDF and Word format for your use.  I have only eight Scouts signed up thus far so if you are interested please touch base with the Merit Badge Coordinator, Mr. Jim Spencer (860-657-4731) as soon as possible but by no later than this Wednesday’s Troop Meeting.   

Family Life Merit Badge Next meeting January 11,2012

The scouts that are taking this will work on their own and will meet once monthly.

The troop uniform exchange is accepting donations.  Uniform shirts and pants will be accepted at any meeting, as long as there are no holes or tears (stains and glue can be removed).  We are in particular need of larger size shirts.  Please email me if you have any questions marycannin@aol.com
