The SPL and PL elections are this week.  The troop need all the scouts to turn out to participate in this important event.  Since this is also the night before mid-terms for WA students we will keep the meting focused only on elections and attempt to end it early.

It looks like it will be great skiiing and boarding this weekend - lots of great snow - but it is also going to be cold.  Please rememebr to come prepared to keep warm with layers of clothing and coverage for all skin.  If you have not submitted  permission slips or waiver forms yet please do so this week.

We have a number of merit badge offerings coming up.  If you are interested in one of the following please contact the Scoutmaster and Merit  badge couselor for more information.

Congratulations to Danny T. who sucessfully completed his Eagle Board of Review!   Danny's Eagle Project was constructing a new bridge accross the Snake Medow Brook allowing for the extension of the Gould Road trail.  The Eagle Board was impressed with the planning on the project and the work that Danny needed to accomplish to get Town approval.

If you go to the web site, www.LetsSayThanks.com you can pick out and personalize a thank you card and Xerox will print it and it will be sent to a soldier that is currently serving overseas. You can't pick out who gets it, but it will go to a member of the armed services.   It is FREE and it only takes a second.   Wouldn't it be wonderful if the soldiers received a bunch of these?    Whether you are for or against the war, our soldiers over there need to know we are behind them.   This takes just 10 seconds and it's a wonderful way to say thank you.    Please take the time and please take the time to pass it on for others to do.  We can never say enough thank you's.   Thanks for taking to time to support our military!

Just a reminder that the cookie dough and coffee orders will be arriving on Thursday afternoon.  Pickup time is 4:30pm Thursday.  The cookie dough comes frozen and the troop has no facilities to store the product so it is important that everyone makes arrangement to pick it up and deliver it, or keep it frozen until it is delivered.
