Do you have Troop Camping Equipment?

Posted on Jul 18 2025 - 12:16pm

PARENTS: To support the many troop outings, the troop (and each family) has invested in high quality camping equipment. Please help the troop keep the camping equipment clean and intact. CHECK TO SEE IF YOUR SCOUT BROUGHT ANY TROOP CAMPING EQUIPMENT HOME AFTER AN OUTING. If yes, please clean and return to the Troop Scout Quartermaster Neil R.

The troop asks for your support in getting this accomplished. Please help your scout remember what he needs to do with the equipment, so the troop can continue providing these items to other scouts. Further details are located on the troop website; far left column, "Returning Troop Equipment".
