As all of you know, our backpacking campout is coming up! The cost for this awesome weekend trip planned for Oct 19-21 will be a mere $20. Because of the need to get an accurate count of hikers, everyone planning on attending needs to bring your $20 AND a permission slip to the Scout meeting on Monday (Oct 15). If you won’t be able to come to the meeting (or if you just want to be pro-active), you can also drop it off at my house, (97 S Dawson Ave) at any time between now and Monday. Permission slips can be downloaded from the troop website at http://troop166.org/web-
From my discussion with the SPL, none of the Scouts needs to borrow any gear (backpacks, tents, sleeping bags, etc). If this is not correct, please let me and Peter (pak_2013@yahoo.com) know ASAP so arrangements can be made.
BTW, we could also use 1-2 more adults to come so that we have enough cars to stage water. This a great opportunity to spend a quality weekend in proximity to your son on a beautiful backpacking trip!
