End of the Year Festivities

Hard to believe the end of another scout year is upon us.  We still have a couple of events coming up that we don't want you to miss!

SATURDAY, MAY 30
6PM
Walnut Grove Cemetary in North Brookfield
Walker Memorial Scout Service
**This event is held to commemorate all scouts and leaders that have passed away this past year.  Boys will march in with other scouting units in Mohegan Council to pay their respects.  Lets show the families of the departed that we stand together as family in scouting.

SATURDAY, JUNE 6-SUNDAY JUNE 7
3PM Saturday-9AM Sunday
Treasure Valley Scout Reservation
Graduation/Crossover ceremony and family camp out
**This will be our last event for the 2014-2015 scout year.  Please join us as we celebrate the boys' successes from the year.  After the graduation (which will be at 4pm on Saturday) we will have dinner, play some games, eat yummy dessert, and camp out in the beautiful woods of Treasure Valley. Everyone is invited, so bring the whole family!!  Here's the list of what you'll need to bring...

--tent (believe it or not, this is optional.  The tents used for boy scout camp are up and we are able to use them.  However, they do not zip and are wooden platforms.  If you prefer your own tent, bring it.  If you want to use the camp's tents, that's fine)

--sleeping bags & pillows

--air mattress (if you prefer using one)

--PACK 118 T-Shirt (boys should wear these for graduation.  Uniforms are not necessary as we don't want to lose pieces.  Arrow of Light boys should wear their uniform)

--extra clothes (include long pants in case it's cold)

--pajamas

--sweatshirt/jacket

--bug spray

--sunscreen

--flashlight

--waterbottle filled with water

--toothbrush/toothpaste

--comfy shoes (no sandals, flipflops, or crocs please)

--extra socks

--bathing suit & towel (if you want to do a polar bear plunge Sunday morning)

--rain gear (poncho, umbrella, raincoat--we all know how the weather cooperates with us)

--your contribution to the meal your den has planned

--summer camp forms if you haven't already turned them in

--recreation items (football, frisbee, etc. NO VIDEO GAMES)

As always, if you have any questions, please don't hesitate to email Ryan at evannpd@charter.net.  We sincerely thank all volunteers, parents, and scouts for a wonderful scouting year!
