ANNOUNCEMENT

This Saturday morning at 8:00 am will be the Pioneer Day breakfast. We have been asked to give a flag ceremony for the start of the breakfast. We'll need everyone there in their brown shirts/green pants, and hopefully someone can find the bugler so that he can participate. Extra spam to everyone who shows up!

Space Exploration, etc.

Last night the troop met to assemble their rockets (which will be launched at a to-be-determined date). Everything went well, as long as you stayed away from the burning glue, a super-glue that gave off heat energy as it solidified.

After the rockets were partly assembled, we had some great games of dodge-ball. Swamp-donkey showed us all how to play.

A.T. Favorite Pics.

Hey everyone! Chafe here, and I've got a couple of Raw and Uncut Pics from our hike. The first one I like to call 'Chief Thinker'. Then we have 'Hotspot?' where we've got Indiana Jones checkin his feet for hotspots. Then we've got 'Owned' with Uno and Swampy paying the price for sleeping on the job. Fourth, we've got 'Corbo in space' with Corbo in deep thought at a troop break. And finally, 'The Gangs All Here' which was taken on top of our hardest climb on the second day.


Hiking the Appalachians






Here are a few pictures from our recent Appalachian 50-miler. More to come.

Eagle Court of Honor


Congratulations to C-Fow for receiving his Eagle on 29 June, 2008!

The Tetons

This is where the scoutmaster gets his name. The big one on the left is the Grand Teton, the one in the middle is the Middle Teton. I've climbed that one.

Hello all. We're going to try something new out to keep our troop informed of activities, and hopefully provide links to information that will help all the young men progress to Eagle. Chase Fowers has been asked to take responsibility for the blog, and will hopefully be updating it weekly. If you have any suggestions, you can email me, or leave a comment here. Thanks for all you do,

SM
