The troop meeting on December 15th is being held at St. Mark's Church located at 75 Cold Spring Road.  The troop will be making meat loaves to be sent over to the St. Paul's kitchen in Lowell.  This has become yearly project for the troop to help give service to our community.

This weekend is the troop's Freedom Trail and Skyzone trip.

Attendees should remember to:

• Pack and bring a bag lunch for Saturday
• Dress warm as we will be outside walking around Boston for most of Saturday
• Dinner will be at Faniul Hall - Scouts will be provided money to pay for dinner.  If they want additional money for shopping they should bring it along.

Sign-ups for Seabase 2013 are open.  Sign-ups are open until December 15th.  Sign-up forms and deposits need to be turned into the Scoutmaster.

Sign-ups are on a first-come first served basis.  It is the intent of the troop to register for a program that will accommodate all the scouts that sign-up. However, due to the nature of the registration lottery that Sea Base conducts, it is possible that we will not have enough room on the trip for everyone who signed up.

All the trip information is now available on the web site at this page.

This week's meeting will feature Mr. McDonald returning to finish up the fishing merit badge.  This is the follow on to the work that was completed during the deep sea fishing trip.  For scouts who attended the deep sea fishing trip should be able to finish the merit badge while those who are just starting the merit badge will be able to get a partial that they can complete at summer camp.

If you have any troop equipment - either from this weekend's camping trip or from prior events please remember to being it to this week's troop meeting so it can be returned to the shed.

This weekend is our November camping trip.  We will be camping at Camp Wanocksett and  day hiking up Mount Monadnock.  While the weather promises to be nice it will be cold on the mountain.  Scouts should dress appropriately with several layers of clothing, good hiking boots, gloves, and a hat.  Water bottles are also required.
