Christmas Court of Honor 2017

Scouts and Parents


Hope each and everyone is enjoying the holiday season.  We have 4 days and a wake up until Troop 219 Christmas CoH. The scouts will receive a gift from the Troop Sunday.  If the scouts want to participate in an additional gift exchange we ask each scout and or sibling wishing to participate bring a wrapped gift not to exceed $20 to the party; only those bringing gifts will be allowed to exchange gifts (siblings may participate).    In addition the Troop will raffle a 22 caliber rifle and ammo during the party.  The raffle tickets are 1 for $10 or 3 for $25.  Tickets will be sold at the event.  Each year we ask families to bring 3 hams and 3 turkeys to our dinner in addition to this we ask all families bring a side and desert to share with everyone.  I have only heard from 10 families who are attending.  I expect this will be no different than other years with an average attendance of over 100 people.  Please let me know if your family is able to help with a ham or turkey.   I need 4 families to volunteer to bring (2 ham and 2 turkey).  Mr. Puterbaugh and I will bring a ham and turkey respectively.  Respond to this email.

The United Methodist Church of Chugiak has been very kind to provide our venue this year at no cost.  To create a festive environment I need volunteers for Set Up beginning at 11:00 am and for Clean up to be available at the end of the event.  Important Note:  Set up Crew arrives at the same time as Sunday Service.  All Troop 219 personnel must use the lower parking lot.  At 1:00pm only lower door will be open

Finally, if you have any pictures you would like to have considered for inclusion in our annual Troop Year in Review please send them to me email or I will send you a link to place the pictures in Dropbox.  I would like to receive pictures from all of our eagle candidates/scouts showing their project and those who helped.  I will accept pictures through Thursday 7 Dec.
