This month's Troop Outing will be a weekend campout at Camp Rainey Mountain. Many of the requirements for First and Second Class will be offered, including the 5-mile Hike, Orienteering, and Swim Test.
There will also be a Merit Badge in Welding offered by Mr. Steele. Blue cards must be approved in advance by Mrs. Elaine and Mr. T. Those who are signed up for the Welding badge are reminded to bring long pants and a long-sleeved shirt.
Menus, duty rosters and grubmasters have been settled at the last two Troop meetings. Please bring the amount designated by your patrol (usually $7) to reimburse your grubmaster. Regular overnight gear is needed.
Scouts will need a day pack with water bottle plus the Outdoor Essentials listed in the Scout Handbook for the 5-mile Hike. Bring a compass if you have one for the Orienteering course. Weather permitting, there will be swimming for general recreation and to fulfill requirements, so bring your swimsuit, towel and water shoes.
As always prepare for the possibility of rain.
Meet at the Scout Hut on Friday night at 6:00 p.m. to carpool to Camp Rainey Mountain.
