We have 5 seats still open - ACT NOW !!!

Our Troop has chartered the Schooner Nathaniel Bowditch (www.sailbowditch.com) for a week of high adventure sailing off the coast of Maine (August 12th - 18th) . We currently have 19 signed up but still have 5 spots open for a total capacity of 24 for anyone interested. If we can fill a minimum of 20 spots then the Troop can benefit from a 20% per person discount as well. It would be great if you could please help us talk this up among your fellow Scouts to hopefully enlist some interest.
