Looking for adult volunteers, to enjoy the week, on a private pond, in the Rhode Island woods, with kayaking, sailing, archery, high ropes courses, and of course festive meal times!  Would like 4 adults for the entire week.  Any part week volunteers would be greatly appreciated as well. Sign up here.  Please use the notes to fill in the details.  

From the top of Bear Mt.   These scouts used their knowledge, gained through scouting to have fun, and enjoy beautiful views, during the 10 mile, 2,228 ft elevation gain hike, with lows of 18 deg F. 

I have again registered our troop (by last name only) with Ski Butternut in the Berkshires for discounts throughout this winter season. ANYONE in the group (family, friends, etc) is entitled to the discount. The discount is good all-season (including Christmas week) EXCEPT the 3-day MLK and 3-day presidents weekends. Simply show up at the group booth and identify yourself with Glastonbury Troop 156.

With the recent light frosts, the Town of Glastonbury has opened up the fields, so that our campout is ON!!

20 scouts from our troop endured the extensive hike up Mount Monadnock of New Hampshire.

As you are likely aware organizations have been cancelling evening activities throughout Connecticut, until the 1st frost.  We are hopeful that the 1st frost will occur prior to our planned Gay City Campout in two weeks (10/11-10/13).  In case that does not happen, we are looking into the possibility of moving the campout back 2 weeks, to the weekend of 10/25-10/27.  For now, we are planning to hold the campout as scheduled.   In any case, we will not camp in CT until after the 1st frost. We will make the final call no later than the Oct 9th Troop meeting.
