Hi everyone,
- Next Troop Meeting – Monday, May 13 - 7:00-9:00 pm – Ahearn Center Gym – EARLY START!
It’s going to be a busy night!
- Final Summer Camp payments are due at this Troop meeting. Each Scout going to Owasippe owes a payment of $225.
- It’s our third and last Leadership Training Session. We have had amazing attendance at these training sessions. I hope it’s not just the food that is getting guys out to the meetings! Great job everyone! These training sessions will make us a better Troop.
Dinner (Sloppy Joes) will be ready at 6:45 for the guys who arrive early. We will start promptly at 7:00 and conclude by 9:00. Please be on time!
Uniform for the night is a shirt from your favorite professional sports team.
To show what a compassionate person I am, we will reluctantly allow Cubs shirts.
Go White Sox!!

Get ready for a fun day in canoes at Busse Lake. We will explore the lake by canoe and enjoy a delicious shore lunch as part of the day. The cost for this outing is $10.00 per paddler. The permission slip is in the Resource Center.
We will meet at 9:00 on Saturday morning (May 18) to load up and go. We anticipate returning to St. Juliana by 3:00 in the afternoon.
Payment and the permission slip are due at the May 13 Troop meeting. Monday is the deadline to sign up because we need to ensure enough canoes, paddles, PFDs, and food.
- New Troop T-Shirt – Send in your size or no shirt for you!
You should have received an email asking you to submit your shirt size. I won’t be chasing the Scouts and leaders who don’t send me their shirt size. If I don’t hear from you, I won’t order you a shirt and you will wander aimlessly through life without this cool shirt. How sad…
- Mystery Question
What are the next three letters in this combination? OTTFFSS
The first Scout to respond correctly will win one genuine, printed in the USA, real live US dollar bill! Remember to copy a parent or your response will be invalidated and tossed into the virtual waste basket, and you will be chased by cicadas all summer.
See you next Monday!

Scoutmaster, Troop 965
