Where We Are Going Parents: Be sure to put these trips on your schedule and to register your scouts ASAP Note: Parents and Scouts are encouraged to register for trips as soon as possible.  Registration money for the trip can be turned in to the Outdoor committee on any Scout Meeting Night. Each Trip is targeted at $25.00.  Additional fees may be necessary if the trip requires a long trip.  Outing fees cover food, camping reservations and travel expenses.  Where trips do not have large travel arrangements reduction in the trip fee will be announced. Parents are encouraged to add money to the scouts troop bucks accounts and to register using the troop bucks. Parents we encourage you to register on line and by the end of the month prior to the trip.  (for example you should register by the end of December for the January trip).  This would go a long way in solving problems about travel arrangments and costs.  Date  Description  Register on-line    2008-2009   November 16-18 Patrol Camping (Location & Date up to individual patrols) Register December 13 Climbing - Inner Peaks Register January 24-25 Winter Sports - Appalachian Ski Mountain Register February 20-22 Scoutmaster Surpise - Location ???
