Hello scouts - Following up from tonight's Patrol Leaders Council: A few upcoming events to note. This is a long list, please read carefully - it's a busy schedule for the near future!
Saturday May 25/Sunday May 26: Theo H's Eagle Project, 1919 La Salle Ave, Minneapolis, MN 55403 - building a food shelf pantry. Message from Theo:
Help needed Saturday the 25th 12-3 pm and Sunday the 26th 1-4 pm. I would love 4-5 people for Saturday and a few more on Sunday. Saturday would be priming and painting the lumber as well as digging post holes and installing them with concrete. Sunday is putting the constructed pantry onto the posts and finishing touches. If parents are interested they are welcome as well, especially for driving scouts. Hopefully two different days doesn’t cause problems. We’ll offer lunch on Saturday. If kids need rides I can help organize one for them. Please fill out the Google form to RSVP for either day.
Thank you!
Monday May 27: No Troop meeting on Memorial Day. If you are able to help, please attend the Soldier's and Pioneer's Cemetery service hour opportunity at 8:15 AM on Monday in lieu of the normal troop meeting.
Saturday June 1: Philmont Garage Sale is planned at MUMC. We're asking the Troop to donate items toward the sale. Proceeds of the sale will support the Philmont 2025 crew. Philmont crew members should plan to be present to help with the sale. We'll send more details. If you have items to donate but cannot be there on June 1, please contact Dr. Nixon to arrange a drop-off time before the sale,
Sunday June 2: Pack 1 Crossover, Base Camp. We need a contingent of Scouts to attend the Pack 1 Blue & Gold to help welcome our newest patrol, the Half Burnt Hot Dogs. Class As, be there by 4:45 PM.
Monday June 3: Troop meeting/Swim Tests, Lake Nokomis small beach.
This is our regular Troop meeting but it's also a chance to get wet.
Those attending Summer Camp or Boundary Waters should be present! We're
hoping to have two certified life guards on hand to approve our swim
test results. (Can't make it, but going to summer camp? You can still do
your annual swim test at Tomahawk.)
