December Camp Out
Please sign up early for the December Campout.  It will be at Short Mountain once again on December 18 - 20. We will be sleeping in a heated cabin with beds and mattresses. Bring sleeping bag, warm clothes, work gloves. Saturday morning we will work on service projects. We will go hiking Sat afternoon. We will cook as a troop. Parents and other family members are invited to come up and join us for supper. Mr. Wiser traditionally plans a feast topped off by dutch oven cobblers. Saturday evening we will have a devotional and voluntary gift exchange. If you want to participate, bring a small, appropriate, gift (approx. $5-$10). Those who bring a gift will participate in a drawing to exchange gifts. We usually play board games on Friday and Saturday nights - bring your favorite game. A sign-up sheet will be posted - please be very accurate this time as to the meals you and your guests will eat. We usually have a large crowd so we need to be able to buy the right amount of food.
