We are installing mulch this Saturday at the Goddard Pre-School in Flower Mound. Address is 4051 Cross timbers R. Flower Mound TX 75028. Plan to meet there at 9 AM. RSVP on our web-site. Bring gloves, refillable water bottle, and (just-in-case) a lunch. But if we all pull together we should knock this out more quickly. As a reminder - these funds are going to help pay for our new trailer - so we really need everyone there. See you there!
We are moving our Campout back 2 weeks hoping that better weather will let us teach skills better.
This weekend we're having our annual Scout Skills Campout at Stone Ranch (Honey Grove, TX). Here are a few things to remember:
- Food Shopping is Thursday night, 7-8 PM, Walmart @ Ohioe & Rt-121 - meet at the front of the store near the Grocery section
- Friday night meet at the Church at 6 PM to load the trailer, eat dinner first, make sure you have a reusable water bottle and a flash light on you in a day pack (not in your bag)
- Attached are the directions and a gear list
- Weather forecast calls for temps in the 60s during the day, 40s at night, and a rainstorm sometime Saturday (hourly forecast not yet available - will update on Friday morning)
Time to order "Class Bs". Class B uniforms are worn for informal troop meetings and outings. Orders for class B cotton t-shirts, wicking t-shirts, and hooded sweatshirts will be taken until the Court of Honor on May 5th. (so we can order in time for Summer Camp)
Cotton t-shirts Cost: $15.
Wicking shirts Cost $20.
Hooded sweatshirts Cost $20
Two ways to order: See the Calendar Invite for May 5th - RSVP with Order Info. Or you can print the attached form and bring to either the April 28th Troop Meeting or the May 5th Court of Honor.
Pay by check or at our online store - directions in the attached.
The project will be at the Connemara Meadow Nature Preserve on Saturday, March 30th. People working will need to be there at 9AM and should be done by 5PM. Breakfast and lunch will be provided.
My project will be erosion control alongside Rowlett Creek. We'll be cutting down small trees and brush, making bundles out of them, then staking them alongside the river bank.
Wear old clothes, boots, and work gloves. If possible, please bring safety goggles, and a hand saw.
The entrance is opposite the intersection between Old Alma road and Alma. Alternate parking and entrance can be through Suncreek Park.
While you are out selling mulch, see if your customers would also like to purchase a flat of flowers ($20-$30 per flat). These are the same prices as your customers would receive at a store - with no delivery fee. Delivery will take place around 4/12. See attached file for flower pictures, order form, and instructions.
This summer our Troop will be sending two crews to Minnesota to canoe in the backcountry of Canada. There are two open slots for anyone that is interested - Scouts must be 13 by the time we leave (June 23rd). We could really use one additional adult. Please see Mr. Grenier for any questions.
