Halloween Party | Camping & Activities

Your Wednesday Dispatch:

Halloween Party: We still need help especially for closing shift. The Pack 1 Halloween party is scheduled for Saturday Oct 28. This is to benefit the MUMC youth group. Troop 1 is selling concessions (pizza/hot dogs/refreshments) as a fundraiser for the youth group. Because this makes no money for the Troop, it should count as service hours. The volunteer shifts will run 5:30-7:30PM or 7:00-9:00PM. Scouts can volunteer for one or both shifts. Shifts overlap to accommodate scouts who may need to arrive late or leave early. Wear your uniform, OR you can wear a costume. Costumes cannot be scary and must be safe to wear in a kitchen while working (nothing flammable, sharp, etc. - use your best judgement!)

Upcoming Activities:

  • Coin Collecting Merit Badge - NOVEMBER. At least 4 scouts are participating, planning for Tuesday nights. If you are also interested, please fill out the form here: https://forms.gle/PsgWQ2Ws4jn1X2jc6

  • Snow Base: If the Troop wants to send a crew in January, we need to decide ASAP.

  • Philmont 2025: We have interest in putting a crew together for this trip. If you will be 14 in 2025, start thinking about this - Scouts who have gone in the past refer to it as a "life changing experience".

  • Upcoming Camps: Don't forget to sign up for Stearns Fall Camp (Nov 10-12) or December Board Game Camp! See sign-up links on the Troop website here: https://www.troop1min.org/home/camping

Good Scouting!
