We are going all the way up to Acadia National Park on the coast of Maine to do some hiking and exploring during the weekend of September 18-20th. We are starting the new year off with our Court of Honor and registration night on August 31st, and although we are taking Labor Day off, we will be very busy planning for our first camping trip of the year at our first meeting on September 14th. The boys would also like me to extend a huge “Thank You!” to all of the leaders who spent time with us that week, including: Mike Berry, Shawn Donahue, Rob Gordon, John Toler, and Patrick Walsh, and our part timers – Aaron Cavin, Ralph “Bampy” Jacobs, Brian Laroche, and Rich Sutherland. The boys made us all proud and we are looking forward to handing out all of their hard earned badges at our Court of Honor on August 31st. The Troop earned nearly 50 merit badges, learned primitive skills, outdoor cooking skills, swam, boated, climbed, hiked, and generally had a great time. Troop 6 had a fantastic week at summer camp back in July, with 19 scouts, half a dozen leaders, and 2 of our scouters on staff for the summer.
