Patrol Advisors:
I’ve attached to Camporee 2011 information packet to this email for your review. There’s some erroneous information in there that you don’t need to worry about (like the registration instructions), but there’s also a lot of useful information about the scoring process and the events that may help your patrols prepare for the event
Hi Troop,
Please review the attached backpack flyer. This backpack is considered a “basic” backpack. Fun for new backpackers, and experienced backpackers too.
New Scouts and/or those scouts who have not gone through the troop indoor backpack training:
We will be holding the annual “mandatory” troop backpacking training class in April, before this backpack. A flyer will go out shortly, but just so you can put it on your calendars, it will be April 15th from 6:30pm to 9:00pm.
If you would like to participate in backpacks, now, or possibly in the future, please plan on attending this class.
Please follow the registration instructions of the flyer to sign up for this event. The contact is Mr. Olson at: gcolson@bigvalley.net

Hi Troop,
Several scouts and parents have inquired about the shooting camp I put on every summer. I’ve attached the flyer for more information. This is NOT a Boy Scout camp, however, all shooting badges, and usually a couple more are offered. I will be sending this flyer out to the council in a couple weeks. If you’re interested in attending, please email me as soon as possible. I only take 35 boys and/or girls for this camp.

It’s that time of year again…time for our:
2ND ANNUAL RECYCLING FUNDRAISER!
Last year we were able to collect $850.00 through the Scout’s fund raising efforts! AND WE DIDN’T HAVE TO SELL A THING! Let’s see if we can top that this year.
This fundraiser (and the garage sale fundraiser) helps the troop offset some of it’s operating expenses, and helps us purchase equipment for the troop. Your efforts help us to keep our registration dues lower than the average annual dues for troops in our district.
If we all pitch in…we can make a difference.
WINNING PATROL GETS AN ALL EXPENSE PAID PIZZA PARTY!
Please review the attached flyer for more details.
