Hello Folks, I hope you all are having a wonderful Summer! Hal and I are busy keeping our scouting program active and exciting. It is time to put on your calendars, our next trip to the New River near Crumpler, NC. We will be camping in the Twin Rivers Campground and canoeing a section of the New River on Saturday - returning Sunday early afternoon. This will be a similar trip to the recent Dan River canoe trip. Meal Prep (boys prepare your own for Saturday): Friday: bring a sub to eat when we get there. Saturday: Breakfast, Dinner in camp Lunch & Snacks on the river. Sunday: Breakfast (Leaders will prepare for the scouts). Have $$ for lunch on the road. 2 Liters of water on the river Dad's, we will need one or two vehicles that can pull a light trailer. We will no longer need anyone to put canoes on their roof (new trailer setup). Please let me know in the Online Registration Form <http://www.scouttroop17.org/permission> comments.
