Outing opportunities between now and Summer Camp

2/21/2013

 
Aside from the other business we discussed at the 2/20 Leaders Meeting, several ideas for trips and merit badges were discussed, as well as a possible fund raiser where all the profit went towards summer camp fees for those who participate. Here's a summary of the options presented so you can educate yourself and your Scout to determine what they would like to take part in.

Your Scout is encouraged to discuss outing ideas with his Patrol members, and present them to the Troop. They may need your help in researching their ideas for costs and logistics. Please work with them!
