Troop Upcoming Events and Announcements

BSA Summer Camp 2013

Parents and Scouts:

Please see the linked information, program guide and daily schedule for signing up for the 2013 summer camp.  We do encourage all scouts to attend summer camp.  They are given many opportunities to work on advancement and will have experiences that will last a lifetime.

We will be going to camp June 30th thru July 6th. We will attend Camp Manatoc which is located in Peninsula Ohio.  The cost of camp this year is $245.00 if paid for by 5/14/2013. [after this date it will be $255; unless new webelos crossing over to the troop, then the $245 price is good until 6/15/13] These fees will be due at the time of registration for camp with the troop.

Please use the CampRegistration Sign-up / Merit Badge selection form to let us know you wish to go to camp with us this year.  Once completed, the scouts should start to work on any pre-req’s that may be needed. This for will be used to keep the scout on task while we are at camp.

For the 1st year scouts, we will have them work on the T-2-1 program, which will target the Tenderfoot thru First Class requirements. They will also work on either First Aid merit badge or Swimming merit badge at camp, plus up to one additional merit badge as well. [More on this later]

There is a new Medical form that will be used this year.  When you get your medical check this year please use this form.  The A,B & C sections must be completed. A new medical physical is needed each year. Make sure immunizations are current and a recent tetanus shot has been given within the last 10 years.  This new form can be found at the following link: http://www.scouting.org/scoutsource/HealthandSafety/ahmr.aspx

PLEASE NOTE - The camp will not have a cot for each camper.  The camp has a limited number of cots that can be rented at camp for $5.00; but I can not guarantee they will be enough to go around. I have shown the type that is suggested for use at recent  troop meetings. Please plan to address this issue prior to camp.

If you have any questions about summer camp please let me know. 

Sincerely,

Kirk Bohanan
Scoutmaster Troop 136

Kirk Bohanan Scoutmaster Troop 136     Hey everyone! Tyler Straight here.    First of all, I'd like to thank everyone who attended my Eagle Scout Project this weekend. While we were unable to work Sunday, the crew that arrived on Saturday did a magnificent job. We painted nearly everything we needed to, and we removed an impressive amount of gravel in our small four hour window. Everyone worked hard and were respectful, and I couldn't ask for any more than that.    To continue this good work, I will again be holding two work days this weekend, Saturday, July 19th from 8:00 a.m to 12:00 p.m. and Sunday, July 20th from 4:00 p.m. to 8:00 p.m. behind Grove City High School at 4665 Hoover Rd.
