Hello Troop 16! Here is the plan for this week’s troop meeting.
For this meeting, there will be two main activities. First, we will be doing camp prep for those of you who are going on the September campout. If you are not going, then it will be a great time to get requirements signed off for rank advancement. The second main activity will be camp stove training and it is very important that everyone gets trained for upcoming campouts. Flags will be done by the flaming ice cubes patrol for this meeting.
See you all Tuesday!
