Part of this week's troop meeting will be conducted outdoors so scouts should wear coats and hats and bring gloves and flashlights. Also, please bring any cardboard egg cartons, wood shavings, and dryer lint as they will be used to make fire starters for the upcoming winter camping trip.
This week's troop meeting will not be held at the Legion. It will be at the Kennedy Pond trails (part of the Nashoba Brook Watershed) where the troop will hold a short night hike. Please meet at the parking area at the end of Trailside Way at the usual 7:00 pm starting time. Please bring a flashlight and dress appropriately for the weather.
