April Campout – With the Camporee cancellation, we’ve been left scrambling for an alternative camping adventure. The Scouts voted to go to Perry CCC Lake, but this turned out to not be an option given that two other Troops have already reserved the space. Second on the list was Will Rogers. This is still an option, but the camp is being used by another Troop and Wood Badge.
We will finalize our choice during the Committee Meeting on Monday. If you have any additional ideas for a camping venue, please bring them forward.
Pack 12 Crossover – We will be participating in Pack 12’s Crossover on Thursday, April 22nd. We will have more details at Monday’s Troop Meeting.
Knot Tying – Remember to bring your rope to the Troop Meeting.

Upcoming Activities
OSU Colvin Center Rock Wall Climb – We will be climbing at the OSU Colvin Center on Saturday, April 17th from 12:45 – 3:00pm. Please come in your Class B Uniform and meet at the East Main Entrance. Parking is permitted, but at a cost of $0.25 per hour for those parents that stay. Below is the permission slip. Please get these in as soon as possible.
Climbing Waiver Form: For the climbing activity, we must also provide a signed waiver and release for each participant. Please use the link below to print out the waiver and have your Scout bring it to the Colvin Center on Saturday. For those that forget, we will have some blank copies that may be signed as you drop your son off. Here is the link:

Wilderness and Remote First Aid – Boy Scout High Adventure requires that at least one person attending be certified in this type of first aid. A course is being offered on May 15-16 at Camp Sylvia Stapley, a Girl Scout Camp near Stillwater. Cost is $60. Class size will be limited to 20 participants. Certification is good for two years. If interested, please see me or register with Melanie Armstrong at the following e:Mail address:

Summer Camp – Never too early to be thinking about Summer Camp. We have our reservation in for the second week, which is June 13 – 19. First Year Scouts need this camp, attending the Eagle Quest activities. Older Scouts will have the opportunity to select from the array of offered merit badges.
Justin Jones has volunteered to be one of our adult leaders for the week. How cool is that?
