Mr. Givens will be teaching the Indian Lore merit badge during the October meetings beginning this Monday, October 1. Please do not miss this opportunity. You really need to be at the October meetings.
The Virginia Creeper is nearly upon us. We have reservations for Oct 12-14.
We NEED a final head count. Only 2 people responded to the Doodle poll: https://doodle.com/poll/7ubkhn6feduyrff4
Please respond to the poll even if you do not plan on attending. If you cannot see or use the poll, please contact me.
Monday night’s meeting is the only meeting we have to prepare for the VA Creeper.

We will go to the Virginia Creeper Friday, October 12 and return Sunday, October 14. We will rent bicycles in Damascus.
We need a solid headcount for planning so please see if this trip will work into your plans.
I am quite looking forward to this as it will be my first time on the Creeper ever. I need some experienced scouts and adults to show me the ropes.

Hello Troop 147,
A new poll to determine the VA Creeper trip weekend is up:
https://doodle.com/poll/7ubkhn6feduyrff4
Please answer even if you are not going. You can add two names (youth and adult) by clicking the + over the list of names.
We would like to do this trip on one of the first two weekends. I have included the last two weekends just in case too many people are out on Fall Break.
Your answers really help with planning.
Thank you,

Hello Troop 147,
September’s theme is bicycling although Monday night’s meeting will have a Shining Rock debrief including a discussion about bears.
Our September outing is the Virginia Creeper being put together by Sonny Schow. To help him making arrangements, please fill in this doodle poll:
https://doodle.com/poll/dh8qmfiyvucisbzm
Hit the + under participants to add a second entry if you are an adult going so that we have one entry for the youth and one for the adult. This helps immensely in making sure we have proper coverage and transportation.
Right now, we are planning on going this coming weekend, September 14-16. We will rent bicycles in Damascus.
Thank you,
