Troop Family Picnic – tomorrow Tuesday, October 1 at 6:00 PM

We will be having a Troop Family Picnic instead of a Troop meeting on Tuesday October 1, please bring the whole family!

THERE WILL BE NO MEETING AT THE CHURCH

Location and Time: The Pavilion on the west side of the lake at Cameron Brown Park in Germantown (8628 Farmington), starting at 6:00 pm.

• Mrs. Marjorie Reynolds has sent out a sign-up. Please RSVP as soon as possible with how many are coming from your family, so we can have a count for the food to prepare. You can edit your RSVP later to say what you are bringing if you haven’t decided yet.
• Each family should sign up to bring either a side dish or dessert, please list what you are bringing when responding to the sign-up email from Mrs. Reynolds, so we won’t have too much duplication.
• Please bring serving utensils for your side dish or dessert, if needed.
• The Troop will be providing hot dogs, condiments, drinks (Tea/Lemonade/water), plates, cups, napkins, dessert plates/bowls, and cutlery.
• We will plan to eat around 6:30, so use a cooler if your food needs to be served cold.
• Bring folding chairs.
• Scouts should wear their activity uniform, but can wear any Scouting t-shirt (like Class B, but with any Scouting t-shirt).
• Please bring any outdoor games, football, Frisbee, etc. if you like.

 

Church Service Project – Saturday October 5th

On Saturday, October 5th, we will have a service project at the church from 9 am – Noon. We will be painting the pergola and picnic tables next to the Ralph Moak garage. Please wear old clothes to paint in, and bring a water bottle. A pizza lunch will be provided. We will have a sign-up sheet at the picnic for those who can participate. We also need adults to help supervise. Please come and help so we can show the church how much we appreciate them.
