Troop 398 News Oct 6

OCTOBER CAMP OUT
We plan to participate in the District Camporee at Grimes Canoe Base October 12 - 14. We will canoe a section of the Buffalo River and participate in events planned along the way. Cost will be $10 plus food. We will cook as a troop. We will leave at 5:30 PM on Friday and return at 1:30 PM on Sunday. A sign up sheet is posted on the bulletin board.

WEBB SCHOOL PARKING
Please make a note of Saturday, October 20 and Sunday, October 21. For several years, we have parked cars for Webb School during the Bell Buckle Craft Fair. Webb School pays us to do this and we pass this on to scouts who help park cars based on the hours worked. This is a good way to put some money in your scout account. A sign up sheet is posted on the bulletin board.

POPCORN
Please don’t wait until the last minute to turn in your popcorn orders.  Time is running out - all orders must be turned in by Monday, October 15th.
