Troop 2 Weekly Update and Important Dates for Jan/Feb

Troop 2 had a successful ski trip to Shawnee Peak in Maine over the past weekend. Several scouts completed work on the Snow Sports merit badge, all scouts spent a great deal of time on the slopes skiing and snowboarding, we had great meals and fun at the Shawnee Peak House, and those with the energy to stay up late on Saturday were treated to fireworks on the mountainside celebrating the 75th anniversary of the slope.

Thanks to the scouts for their behavior and enthusiasm, to all the parents who helped us get the scouts packed and there for the weekend, and to the 15 adult leaders that helped over the weekend at the lodge and the slopes with the scouts.

Reminder 

Bottle and Can sorting - Thursday evenings: 7 PM WHC Garage – Processing returnables for redemption.

We need adult volunteers to help with this program, as this is our fundraising source and assures costs are kept to a minimum. Currently less than a dozen volunteers participate.

We need more support from the group to make this program successful. Please see Mr. Chase if you have any questions or can help us out.

Assistance can be as simple as dropping off empty case boxes, helping sort on Thursday, picking up the materials on Wednesdays, or dropping off materials at the redemption center.
