I want to thank our Assistant Scout Masters, Mr. Lundgren and Mr. McGimsey for leading the Turnagain Quinze building Overnight Camp Out.  I also want to give a special shout out to Mr. Arntz for volunteering to go on this trip and to Mr. Wing for driving to drop off and pick up boys ensuring all scouts were appropriately supervised and had transportation.   I saw some very impressive pictures of what the scouts built and look forward to sharing pictures when they become available.    Fifteen Scouts attended the camp out.  Way to go Troop 219.  Now it's time to switch gears. This week we have one of our scouts in the final stages of the building part of his Eagle Project and he is requesting other Scouts to volunteer service.  Any scout who is 2nd year and is available to help.  Dress appropriately and bring work gloves.

Who:  Scouts and Parents
What:  Service Hours to help Keith Sellers complete Eagle Project (Building small deck and handicap ramp)
When:  Thursday, March 2, 6:30-8:30
Where 21287 Running Brook Circle

Encourage Scouts who are 2nd year scouts and above to participate.  New scouts will have other opportunities coming up in March and April to participate in Service Projects.
