Eagle Service Project
Please send out an e-mail to let scouts and adults know that I am finally having a work day on my project. The work day is this Thursday, Oct. 8th, from 9-3ish depending on how many show up. Lunch will be provided. Make sure that when you come to bring a shovel if you can, gloves, and a hammer. I am also in need of a heavy duty double axle trailer that can haul a bobcat if someone has one that can be used. As well as someone that can operate one. Please have them contact me if they have any questions or even just want to let me know that they can make it. Sorry for the short notice! If anyone needs rides, call me, I or one of my family members will be available to pick them up. Devin Bargatze ; email Devin.Bargatze@att.net
Bell Buckle Craft Fair
For a number of years, we have parked cars for Webb School and we will do so again this year on Oct. 17 & 18. As before, priority will be given to scouts going on the 2010 high adventure trip to Philmont. Proceeds will be prorated among scouts based on hours worked. Workers are needed from 7:00 AM to 4:30 PM on Sat & Sun. Let us know what hours you can work. There are sign-up sheet on the bulletin board or reply to this email.
In addition, for the first time, we will set up a food booth on Maple Street in the heart of the craft fair. A friend of our troop has generously offered to let us set up on his property free of charge. He has also given us permission to camp in his back yard if we want to. Profits will be used to offset some of the costs of the high adventure trip next summer. This is a very ambitious project with the potential to make a very good profit. To pull it off, we need a lot of support from our Troop 398 family. While all high adventure crew members are expected to help out on Sat or Sun, we will need a lot of volunteers. You may not benefit directly this year, but you will at some point because, if successful, we hope to continue to do this each year to help fund future high adventure trips.
We will need a crew to set-up on Friday, Oct 16. We plan to leave M'Boro around 2:00 PM and work till we are done. We will also need 4 crews for cooking/serving. Shifts will be from 7:00 AM to Noon and Noon to 5:00 PM on both Sat and Sun. We will break down on Sun afternoon with volunteers from the 2nd shift. You can work shifts at both the parking and the cooking.
There are sign-up sheets on the bulletin board or reply to this email.
