2023 Summer Camp – Class Registration for Early Birds
Is there a merit badge class at camp that you really would like to take, but fills up quickly… like Cooking*, Fishing, or Welding? Class registration for 2023 Summer Camp at Camp Davy Crockett is opening very early – now starting October 1, 2022. Grab desirable classes by first checking the one-page worksheet and/or the class catalogue and then letting Mr. Hasler know by email or in writing (with your name!). You’ll be informed when your schedule is entered.
Payment for Summer Camp (June 18-24, 2023) will be posted later once better information is available – likely after the Recharter effort is done. One reported change is that there will not be class fees, but the base camp fee was increased to save time adjusting these for every scout participant.

2023 Outings Planning
by Scoutmaster Julieann White
Troop 48,
As you know, one of our goals is “TO KEEP THE OUTING IN SCOUTING !
Each year we prepare a calendar for the next year. For 2023, let’s say we will have a proposed calendar ready for the Patrol Leaders Council to review and approve at the October 25th PLC. That gives us time to make revisions and have the calendar ready to distribute early in December. Mr. Browning has agreed to oversee this process and collect ballots.
The ballot will be made available in two ways, a hand-out at regular meetings and by download. Please plan for your “team” to review the ballot during patrol corners and return them to Mr. Browning between now and October 18th. “TEAMS” are our patrols, the Leadership Corps, and the registered adult leaders. Each person should vote for two “Super Activities” for Calendar Year 2024, and ten other outings for Calendar Year 2023. Returned ballots must have a name and no more than 10 regular outings and 2 Super Activities marked, or they will not be counted. Please place your completed ballots in the “Ballot” box at Mr. Browning’s station.
Remember, A Scout is Loyal, but is also Brave. Don’t be afraid to step out of the comfort of old reliable outings and accept the adventures and challenges of untested outings. There are lots of outings to surmount.
