Troop Family Picnic – Tuesday, September 25

We will be having a Troop Family Picnic instead of a Troop meeting on next Tuesday September 25, please bring the whole family! 

THERE WILL BE NO MEETING AT THE CHURCH

Location and Time: The Pavilion in Municipal Park in Germantown (between the library and GAC) starting at 5:30 pm.

• Mrs. Marjorie Reynolds sent a sign-up email today.  Please RSVP as soon as possible with how many are coming from your family, so we can have a count for the food to prepare. You can edit your RSVP later to say what you are bringing if you haven’t decided yet. Here is a link to RSVP and sign-up: https://www.signupgenius.com/go/30e0e4fadae28a7fe3-scout
• Each family should sign up to bring either a side dish or dessert, please list what you are bringing when responding to the sign-up email from Mrs. Reynolds, so we won’t have too much duplication.
• Please bring serving utensils for your side dish or dessert, if needed.
• The Troop will be providing hot dogs, condiments, drinks (Kool-aid/Gatorade/water), plates, cups, napkins, dessert plates/bowls, and cutlery.
• We will plan to eat around 6:00, so use a cooler if your food needs to be served cold.
• Bring folding chairs.
• Scouts should wear their activity uniform, but can wear any Scouting t-shirt (like Class B, but with any Scouting t-shirt).
