    Summer camp deposits are due at this meeting.
    If you haven’t already done so, please bring your twig stove so Mr. Reese can repair it for you.
    Tenderfoot Scouts should bring their money-spending plan for review by Mr. Reese or Mr. Gulliford.
    Uniform: Class A for everyone – please!  

    – Summer Camp Deposit Due by March 23

    The $75.00 deposit for summer camp is due this coming Monday. There is a Summer Camp button on the Troop homepage that takes you to the summer camp page. Embedded in the Owasippe letter on that page is information on the costs for camp. There is a red button in the costs section that takes you directly to the Troop’s GiveCentral account. From there it is easy to make your deposit. We are moving to conducting all of our transactions (summer camp, camping weekends, registration, etc.) in this manner, although we will continue to accept checks for the time being.  
    If you are a “power user” here is the direct link to the Troop’s GiveCentral page.
