P. S.  Wreath money day looks like Sunday 18 Dec 2016.  Stay tuned for details and spreadsheet to help streamline the process.

Hello Scouts and Parents

Who:  Scouts and Families
What:  Christmas Party
Where:  Camp Gorsuch
When: 1-4pm
Uniform:  Class A

This is a potluck.  You are welcome to bring multiple sides, desserts accompanied by serving spoons etc and as always your own drinks.  Troop will provide bottled water.  We currently plan on having approximately 90 to 100 people (scouts and families) at this event.

Please RSVP if you haven't so we can ensure we have enough ham and Turkey.

1.  I need 3 families to volunteer to roast a turkey and 1 family to cook a ham.  So far 3 families volunteered to cook a ham and 1 will roast a turkey.

2.  Call for pictures I am asking for pictures specifically of the rock gym, the 25 mile hike, fall camporee, VFW flag retirement.  I had collected these pictures and downloaded to my phone and unfortunately did not back up and lost the ones people had sent me.  Additionally for those scouts who worked Eagle Projects this summer I did not have the opportunity to photograph all of the projects;  I would appreciate a few pictures of the individual Eagle projects.  I need these pictures as soon as possible as I am putting the finishing touches on the slide show.

3.  Bring cash to the party if you are interested in purchasing raffle tickets for the 22 caliber rifle drawing.  They are $5 a ticket or 4 for $20.

4.  We need  scouts to come early to help set up.  We will have Christmas table settings and other things to prepare before all families arrive.  Please let me know through this email if you can help with set up.  Please be at the Gorsuch Dinning Hall (Large Log Cabin Bldg) no later than 11:30.

Finally, we will be sending specific guidance regarding the wreath money turn in shortly.

Yours in Service,
