Happy New Year!

Happy New Year to all of our scouts and families.  I hope you had a relaxing holiday with your family and friends and are ready for 2020!
We have a lot coming in the January/February time frame so I wanted to get everything out to families!  March isn’t too far off and will bring new scouts into our group as well.

We will kick off the year tomorrow evening starting with PLC at 5:45 and then our troop meeting at 7pm.  For those in PLC, please ensure that you can be there or have a back-up in attendance.


Please see the note from Greg Kyser yesterday on mulch sign-ups.  Sign up with a note to Greg by 1/11 if your scout would like to participate and earn money towards gear and troop activities.  The other key date is mulch delivery day on 4/4.


January Court of honor will be on 1/28.  This is pushed back a week from the original 1/21 date due to the 6th grade band concert.


Our January outing is the annual favorite trip to Marengo Cave on January 24-26 (this was the chosen activity to repeat from last year).  We will be doing the standard cave tour as well as the wet, wild cave tour and staying in the bunkhouse/cabin.  Forms are due by the Tuesday, January 21st meeting.  Attached are the T209 consent form, Marengo waiver, and what to pack for the cave.


With the new year, it is time to start thinking about summer camp!  First payment/deposit for summer camp is due 1/23, so we need camp deposits by 1/21 as well.  Enclosed is the form with payment dates .  Reminder that summer camp is 7/5-7/11.  We would love to have all the scouts at summer camp earning merit badges and enjoying the outdoors!


Merit Badge Challenge is 2/1, 2/15, and 2/22.   Please ensure that your scout is working on their pre-work!  I will be sending out a sign-up for drivers in the next few days.


Scout Sunday is February 9th. We will be celebrating by hosting a pancake breakfast for MSPC to show our appreciation for their support. All Scouts should plan to attend from 9am-11:30am.


Sunday March 1st from 12pm-3pm will be the Webelos Crossover ceremony. More details to follow, but please hold the date.
