Den 5, great job at the North Museum and a big thank you to the parents who supervised. I wish I was there. You all earned your Science Badges.
This week we have a lot going on
Monday - Den meeting (more info below) at St Thomas 7pm-8 (Though I need to leave by 7:45)
Saturday--Scouting for Food pick up. St Thomas 9am
Sunday--Den 5 hike, Muddy Run. Meet at Giant to Go 12:30pm, return at 4pm.
Monday 11/12 Den Meeting. Scouts work on Leave No Trace Posters which they will present at the Pack Meeting the end of the month. This is part of the "Leave No Trace" Patch, which many in the Den will earn if they attend the hike on Sunday. The boys need to apply the "Leave no Trace" principles on 3 separate Den outings. We did it at Summer Camp, the Gettysburg Trip, Hawk Mountain, and another opportunity will be at the Muddy Run hike this Sunday. I think at this point only Nick Edelman and Nico have completed 3. Jacob G and Jacob P, Drew, and Carver have completed 2, and will finish if they attend the hike on Sunday. The remaining boys will need additional den outings, but there will be plenty of opportunity the rest of the year.
***I will also handout additional information on the Klondike Derby which will be held at Camp Mack 1/26.
Saturday we will meet at St Thomas at 9am and then head out as a Den and pick up the food bags that you had dropped off last Sat.
Sunday: Meet at 12:30 at Giant To Go. We will car pool to Muddy Run lake in S. Lancaster County and complete a 3 mile hike around the lake. Bring a plastic bag to pick up any trash we find so that we are practicing "Leave No Trace." (Jacob, Jacob, Drew and Carver can finish their "Leave No Trace.") We will be back around 4pm, so in time for Dinner. Just dress warmly and bring a water bottle and snack.
Thanks and see you Monday!
Dr B
