Troop Elections tonight and Thunderbase camp

By Roland
Parents and Scouts: Don’t forget that tonight is our Troop Elections for the SPL and PL’s.  I encourage all scouts to be there and make your vote count.  New scouts will not participate in this election; but will have activity to do so – don’t miss out.  To be considered for SPL [Senior Patrol Leader] you must be Star Rank; and for Patrol Leader you must be First class.  Also – Here is the final roster for Thunderbase.  If your name is not on this list – I do not have your paperwork and it is now too late to get there with the troop.  There are a few that bought their registration on their own – they should have the registration info to get in the event.  We will be talking about the details - plans for the trip this coming weekend.  Please be present to get all info on this campout. And a BIG welcome to all of the new scouts that just crossed over into the troop this past weekend from Pack 136.  I hope to see you all there tonight so you can start to work on that trek to EAGLE!.  See

Mulch Update... grrr..rr.rrr.rrr.....

By Roland
Troop 136: What a great event!  I can’t thank the group enough for the support on this fundraiser. From those that moved mulch. To the folks that prepared lunch on Saturday and to Mr. Wisenbarger and his company [5 th Avenue Lumber] for the use of the “Moffit” [the mulch moving machine!].  Huge help from all.  Thank You – Thank You – Thank You!!! Ok – here is where we stand… to date we have made just under $8000 in profit with a few orders still to collect on and a mulch bank that will add to this number.  As it stands now, the scouts will have earned about $21.50 per hour worked.  Great Job!  Once the final payments come in this will grow a little. And – for those that helped on Friday-[4/20] or Saturday-[4/21] – you will get a $100.00 Credit for summer camp this year. PARENTS  - If you still need mulch – we have the following still in the “mulch bank”. Cost is still $4.00 per bag and if you would like any it is first come.  Let me know and will put your name on it. Absolute Black – 1
