Troop 103,
Since this Sunday
is the Super Bowl, we have moved our meeting to Monday night in the
parish hall at 6:30 PM. We would like to invite those new scout
parents to attend our parent meeting at 6:45 pm located in the front
portion of the hall. We will discuss future events for the 2013 season
and provide basic information on how your scout should prepare for those
events. (i.e. merit badge day, Camporee,
Summer Camp, etc.)
Merit Badge Day will be on
Saturday, March 2, 2013, on the the LSU Campus. Check-in will take place
in Patrick Taylor Hall (formerly CEBA)
and classes will be held in Patrick Taylor Hall and
Turead Hall.
The classes will end at 5:00 p.m. The cost will be $20.00, lunch
included (see back page for refund policy). Preregistration is required
in order to have proper staffing.
REGULAR PREREGISTRATION DEADLINE
IS FEBRUARY 20, 2013. After this, late
registration runs from February 21-26 and the cost increases to $30.00.
Scouts are required to bring a copy of their current
BSA medical form with
them. 103
We will continue to prepare for our biking trip in
February which is rapidly
approaching. Now would be a
good time for all scouts to take a good look at
their bicycles this weekend
and make sure their are in good condition. If repairs are needed, scouts
should have enough time to fix what is wrong.
On
February 10Th,
we would like those scouts to bring their bicycles to the meeting for
inspection. Although we can not prevent a break down from
occurring, we would like to
make sure that everyone bike is in good condition to complete our
event. We will be leaving
early on Friday the
15th.
for 2 reasons. The first, all scouts should be out of school since it is
the end of the
Mardi
Gras holiday. The
second reason is that this
trip will take a good 3 hours to complete. Even though it will be dark,
leaving early will give us enough time to set up camp.
Although we are still in the dead of winter, it is
time to start thinking about
summer camp. Troop 103 has reserved the second week in June (06-16-13
thru
06-22-13) at
Camp Daniel Boone ,
333 W Haywood St.
Asheville, NC 28801.
Camp registration fees for each scout will be $295. The cost of
transportation will be
determined at a later date in the spring. We will have 3 installment
days for you to pay for summer camp. The first installment will be
February 10th
at a cost of $100. For more information please click on the link
