Please note! Meeting Recap; 2/8/22
If you are planning on attending the Klondike Derby you need to be signed up. Plan on eating well. The adult leadership will be cooking for you as we normally do so that all youth can concentrate on the event. Each scout will need to bring a bag lunch. Adults will provide 2 dinners and 2 breakfasts so no need to plan meals! If you did make a meal plan feel free to share your menus as we would love to see what some of your thoughts and ideas are. Julie Keeton, Heather McNabb, Sandy Wexler, and Julieann White will be happy to have any additional Adults help if you are interested. 
MBU is March 5th we got information out as soon as the council made it available. Please let me know if you have any questions or concerns but more importantly, please get signed up as soon as possible. 
The next trips to plan for are Cumberland Gap and Backbone rock 
Each trip has a trip sheet available on t48.org emails for planning, goes out every Friday, and our Facebook page is regularly updated.  It is important to watch for cut-off dates for trip planning.  Each patrol has key adult leadership, and youth leadership free to reach out with any questions, and if you still have any questions please let me know. 
Thank you to everyone who brought food tonight. We had an amazing time while collecting a bunch of food! 
We will have an exact number of poundage after we deliver the food but we estimate approximately 700lbs going to The blessing box Colonial Heights Presbyterian Church as well as a large financial donation and approximately 2,000 lbs that will go to Second Harvest food bank. 

Cans collected tonight

Phoenix 155

Panther 115

Wolf 85

Flaming arrows 83

Fox 68

Eagle 31
