    The date for the troop and the crew pine wood derby contest will have to be changed again it was suggested for the 16th of March but as per email not possible , the crew is having a meeting on Sunday 3/4/07 at the church from 2:30-5pm, we will go over our calendar and compare it with the troop and packs calendar so we can get this contest on a date when it is convenient for all.

    Hey everyone

    I just wanted to let you know of some changes to the calendar. This coming weekend was originally supposed to be the Lock-in. It has been moved from this weekend (the 10th -11th) to the following weekend (the 17th -18th). We will be having a meeting on the 11th from 2:30 - 5:00 at UMC. The pinewood derby was scheduled for the 11th, but has been moved to March 11th. The hike that was scheduled for the 18th has been moved to March 18th.

    We are planning on having elections at the meeting coming up on the 11th, so if we could get a full member turn-out it would be great.

    Looking forward to seeing you,

    Rob K

    So far, I have received some responses on this problem on two camping trips on same weekend....

    Some of us are not going to the cope course but going to the pack camping, and some want to do the cope course only; Some want to do the cope course first and then go camping with the pack and troop. Depending on numbers of members and leaders available, it could be done as separate camping or just doing a couple of hours at cope.

    (Note: Cope is a requirement for venture advancement and is a great team work experience and alot of fun).

    Next time we meet we will discuss..............

    Thanks for everyone's input.
