I know that it seems like a long way off, but planning begins early for the Philmont expeditions. As soon as April 1st, deposits will be required to secure a spot on one of our crews. Once I am certain that all Scouts from Troop 42 that want to go have signed up, I will need to fill any additional spots with Scouts from outside our Troop, therefore please note and confirm if your name appears on the following list and that you are still planning on attending Philmont in 2012. If your name is not on the list and you would like to attend, please let me know and I will add your name to the list of those going.

Working on registering the Troop for Gold Rush on February 19th. Please see the list below of the Scouts that have signed up, if you are not on the list but wish to attend, then I will need to know by tomorrow, as I need to register the Troop this week. Scouts signed up are; Hello All, I am double checking before I fill out the Pathfinder Merit Badge paperwork. Listed below (in no specific order) are the complete and the incomplete. If I missed something let me know. If you still want to submit the population for Easton and 5 surrounding towns please reply to this e-mail.
Pathfinder Merit Badge Complete Alex Klein Jonathan Berry Kevin Grant Alex Jin Joshua Segill Gennaro Ciato Luke Taylor Phillip Michalowski James Sullivan Ben Jennings Nicholas Blelloch Jake Ryan Cameron Gardner Zachary Goveia (1st to complete) Not Complete Jacob Durrance Mike Brown Chris Keenan Nick Cadmus Adam MacLeod Brendan Lynch Ben Tran Tom Dew Jay Kaufman Nick Caterina Hope that you had a wondeful holiday. Happy New Year!!!! Carrie Kulick-Clark :) Hi Everyone,
Mr. Peoples is available and working to organize an opportunity to “fly” a plane at the Norwood Airport this week. Although, not required to complete the Merit Badge, it is a good opportunity for the Scouts to try something new. If you are working on the Aviation Merit Badge and wish to “fly” this week, please e-mail me back and I will try and put you into groups of two or three. As explained to me at the Airport tour, the flight is 1 ½ hours long and costs $149.00 (Total to be split). Best opportunity to actually fly is if two Scouts go and the plane is able to land during the 1 ½ hour flight so that the Scouts can switch seats, allowing each a change at the helm. Otherwise, they can all load in the plane in groups of three, and go for a ride with only one Scout riding shotgun with the pilot. So, basically, please let me know your level of interest….yes or no, and availability and I will coordinate with Mr. Peoples to see if we can get those Scouts that want to “fly a plane” an opportunity. Y.I.S. Mr. Jennings Hi Everyone,
Hoping that everyone has a Happy and Safe Holiday Season, plus a few reminders; 1.)Since there appears to be limited interest in attending the Klondike this year, the Troop will not be competing. However, it would be great if all the Den Chiefs working with the Cub Scouts could attend with the Dens that they are working with. This responsibility falls under the Leadership portion of your next Rank Advancement. Please let me know if you will or will not be attending. 2.)The Troop will be going to the “Gold Rush” on February 19th. More information to follow. 3.)Scouts are reminded to sign up for Merit Badge University if they wish to attend. Paperwork is due in January, so please sign up as soon as possible, so that I can get everyone registered that is interested in attending. 4.)Summer camp will be the week of July 10th thru July 16th. More information to follow in late January. Hi Everyone,
A few reminders concerning our camping trip this weekend; 1.) There is 6” – 8” of snow on the ground at the site, therefore Scouts should have proper boots and clothing to keep them warm and dry. 2.) Scouts should wear some “orange”, so that they are not thought to be a deer, as it is still hunting season for black powder. 3.) Please remember to bring 2 -3 full size water bottles, full of drinking water. We will treat any water additional water needed by boiling or with purification tablets. 4.) I am still waiting on confirmation from all the Scouts that are going, so far I have only 4 confirmed….Jacob, Ben J, Jonathan Berry, and James Sullivan. Please let me know if you are going. 5.) Scouts should make sure that they have planned for all meals, including lunch, dinner and Sunday breakfast. Saturday, we will stop on the way out for those that need to get something to eat for Breakfast. 6.) Temperatures are expected to be in “teens” at night, if needed Scouts should bring a fleece blanket or liner for their sleeping bags. Please remember to bring a ground mat, to isolate you from the snow. Hi Everyone,
I need the final head count for the outing this weekend. Please let me know if the following Scouts are or are not attending, as presently we only have two drivers, and limited space, so we don’t need any surprises on Saturday morning.

The following Scouts need to confirm if they are or are not attending; 1.) Jacob Jennings 2.) Ben Jennings 3.) Alex Jin 4.) Josh Segill 5.) Michael Brown 6.) Zachary Goveia 7.) Jonathan Berry 8.) Brendan Lynch 9.) James Sullivan 10.) Andre Cuilla Hi Everyone,

Hi Everyone,
I just got word that the initial payment for Philmont 2012 will be $200.00, and it will be due in April 2011. I will post more updates as they become available. This deposit will be essentially a commitment to attend Philmont 2012, and will be non-refundable. Hopefully, all those Scouts that signed up, will get the payment in on time, so that they all will have the opportunity to experience Philmont. Please call with any questions. |
