Next Meeting – April 16 – Gym Lobby – EARLY START! – 7:00
We are meeting early this week to get an early start on making sack lunches for Uncle Pete’s Ministry. The lunches we make will be part of the collection on Tuesday morning that the parish is doing. The lunches are distributed to the homeless during the day on Tuesday. This is an important opportunity to give a little of ourselves and to be reminded of how fortunate we are.

We will also be checking how the balsa wood planes came out. The plan is to make sure everyone’s plane is ready for flying at the April 23 Troop meeting.

We will also be spending a few minutes discussing plans for Owasippe.

Class B uniforms this week!

Scout Mass this Sunday – April 15 – 9:30 AM
Join your fellow Scouts and Leaders for the April Scout Mass. We sit together right behind the Cub Scouts. Class A uniforms for everyone!!

Summer Camp Dates – July 15-21, 2018
Information about merit badge and activity sign-ups was sent out earlier this week. Please let me know if you didn’t get the note. It is very important that Scouts start picking out the activities they want to do at camp this summer. Registration is coming up in a couple of weeks. We’ll have more information at the Troop meeting on Monday. Additional information can also be found on the Summer Camp page.

Warren Dunes Camping Weekend – May 4-6
The Dunes might be our most popular weekend. We spend most of Saturday hiking the dunes and exploring the shore of Lake Michigan. Some brave Scouts even hike the Dunes at night! The permission slip for the weekend is in the Resource Center.
