The next Troop Meeting is Wednesday, November 26, 2008 - 7:30PM
    We will be assembling the Thanksgiving Baskets, please remember your items!
   

A message from Mrs. B:

1.  Ten Commandment Hike - We did a big "oopsie" this year.  We totally forgot about the 10 Commandment Hike!  That being said - any family interested in attending the hike please let me know asap.  The hike is taking place in Long Beach this year -on it's usual day - the day after Thanksgiving.
This is a family event - all are welcome.  Cost is $5.00 per person.  Lunch & patch are included.
As of now - the numbers for the hike are low - so it is pretty much a guarantee that at least one of the four hikes will be canceled.  The All Faith Committee will notify units on Tuesday as to the hike they are in.  The committee has extended the "deadline" until 5PM tomorrow (Friday - 11/21)
Scouts working on the All Faith Award must participate in a hike.
Again - sorry for the whoops ----- and the short notice.  Let me know asap if you & your family plan on attending.

2.  Thanksgiving Baskets.  For those who don't know - annually we put together a Thanksgiving food basket (per patrol) that is given to a needy family.  Each patrol member chooses items out of a hat to bring - all items should be enough to feed 8 people & should not need refrigeration.  The troop purchases the turkeys. The baskets will be put together at the next troop meeting and Susana Isaacson will pick them up FROM the meeting - she will be arriving about 8:45PM. 

Here's what each Scout is to bring:

Viking Patrol -
Anthony - rolls, canned vegetables (any kind), mashed potatoes (instant)
Chris - cranberry sauce, canned yams, gravy
Craig - stuffing, dessert

Senior Patrol -
Charlie - mashed potatoes, gravy
Jimmy - rolls, dessert
Nick - cranberry sauce, stuffing
Steven - vegetables, yams

If a Scout cannot make the meeting on Wednesday it is his responsibility to make sure his food items get to the troop meeting.

3.  Toys for Tots -

Since the Scouts in the Viking Patrol have their winter concert on December 17th the Toys for Tots collection will be held at the meeting on December 10th.  All Scouts should bring a new, unwrapped toy for the collection.  Mrs. Vande Stouwe will be handling the collection this year
