Thinking Ahead

It's that time of year again, time to think warm thoughts and Trail to Eagle! The council has provided us with the information for this unique opportunity for boys 13 years of age or older. This is a wonderful opportunity for a young man to spend a week bonding with other potential Eagle Scouts and earning Eagle Rank requirements. D-bar-A scout ranch the host site for this yearly event. Check out this link for Trail to Eagle.

Pon-Man Winter Hodag!

Announcing the Pon-Man Winter Hodag!
Due to format or my lack of knowledge, I was unable to upload the flyer to our site. So, if you are interested in the specifics of the Hodag then head on over to the GLC site for all the details. I don't see it listed there now, but I'm sure it will be up soon. If you would like a direct link, just email me and I will forward what I have.


The email I received announcing this event encourages the scouts to work on their Polar Bear patch. I believe the scouts must be outside in specific temperatures for a 24 hour period to be eligible for this patch. This event is not 24 hours, Friday night until Saturday afternoon.

Hi Troop 43 parents,

Even though school is cancelled, the Troop leaders have decided that we
will still have the Christmas party as scheduled for tonight at 7p.m.  Hope
to see you there!

(note that if for some reason your scout was never called by their patrol
leader, the party is at 7p.m., please bring a dish to pass, and the scouts
are doing a $20 gift exchange if your scout would like to participate)

Finally, I would like to collect the dues for rechartering tonight, unless
other arrangements are needed.  Note that you can pay from your scout
accounts, if funds are available.



Best Regards,
Kevin Person
Troop 43 Committee Chair
