No meeting this week, and some of us are off to Gettysburg!      See you at our next Troop meeting on Wednesday.

We had our second meeting working on Personal Fitness and Sustainability Merit Badges tonight.     Keep on top of them!

We also had stations around what to pack and bike safety which will all come in handy for our Gettysburg Trip next week.

Keep working on your 30 day fitness plan if you're working towards Tenderfoot, 2nd Class, or 1st Class. 

This Saturday at 8AM at the Avery Street Church, we'll be constructing our new storage space and organizing it.   Bring your own gloves, eye and ear protection, hammer, and closed toed shoes.

Then at 2PM at PRS, we'll have a bike shakedown and we'll pack them on a trailer afterwards.   Bring your helmet, too.
