Troop Update October 5, 2009
Hello Troop,
1. We will be meeting downstairs in room 20 tonight because of the rummage sale.
2. The packets for selling wreaths will be distributed tonight by Mr. and Mrs. Harris; they will be due back at the Court of Honor, Monday October 26th.
3. If you have any VG’s receipts, please bring the tonight and turn them in to the Harris’s.
4. On Friday October 9th and Saturday October 10th the Troop will be working at the Halloween Hayride at Drayton Plains Nature Center. This is a fun way of getting some service hours.
We need spooky looking Scouts to help haunt our station at Drayton Plains Nature Center. Scouts should get there by 6pm (rides start at 6:30pm and go till 10 pm.) Scouts should wear appropriate clothing (i.e. dress for the weather: hot, cold, wet etc) under your Halloween costume. We have a different spot on the route this year so Scouts can call/text Nick Vaillancourt when they arrive at the Nature Center (248 701 4045) and he can come get them. There will be another Scout troop at our regular spot so don’t get confused.
We could also use a couple of adults to help Tony supervise.
Last couple of years Troop 51 won first prize for the scariest station along the hayride route! We need your help to keep our record going!!
The Drayton Plains Nature Center is off of Hatchery Road just south of Dixie Hwy, turn at the sign at Edmore Rd & follow the signs, two quick rights onto Denby Rd. 2125 Denby Rd., Waterford, MI 48329.
5. On Saturday October 10th from 12 – 2:30 PM the Troop will be helping clean up after the rummage sale, both youth and adult help is needed. Please come and help our chartering organization that supplies us with a place to meet and store the Troop equipment.
6. Attached is the permission slip for the October campout, it is due on next Monday October 12th, no exceptions. It can also be found on the Troop Website at: http://www.troop51-bsa.com/docs/PermissionSlips/Oct2009.pdf.
