I hope you all had a wonderful holiday with family and friends. As the Winter Break winds down, I wanted to send out the weekly Troop email. Troop Meetings resume this Tuesday, January 6th. I’ve attached an updated 2026 Calendar and the current Troop Roster. Please save these files for future reference.
January Ski Trip
We have lessons, rentals, and lift tickets for 7 Scouts and 7 Adults for the ski trip on January 9-11. We are watching the weather as it’s supposed to get warm and rainy this week but hopefully their base and snow making ability is sufficient for a good trip. I’ll let you know if our plans change to the January 23-25 backup date and there will be a new opportunity for sign-ups and re-confirmations.
Eagle Scout Court of Honor
Trey and his family request that you reserve the date of January 17th for his Eagle Scout Court of Honor. It is currently planned for 3pm with rehersal for Scouts involved starting at 2pm.
