Shooting Sports Weekend – Nov. 13-15, 2015

Trip Report

After a delayed start, the Scouts from Troop 7 left for CRM for the shooting sports weekend.  Arriving at camp after dark, the Scouts did a great job setting up camp and their adirondacks for the night.  Lights out for our group was at 10pm, but the group next door apparently didn’t get that memo.  We exacted our revenge by waking up at 6am and retrieving our supplies for breakfast which required transporting everything through their camp!

Snow Sport Trip Feb 2016

WolfRidgeFeb2016On a chilly Friday evening 11 scouts and 4 adults drove north. Three hours and  40 minutes later we arrived at the lodge at Ski Wolf Ridge. We quickly unpacked and settled down for the evening. We got up at 7 the next morning we had a cold breakfast. After checking in at the group area everyone got their gear. We headed to the lesson area. The scouts then proceeded to either board or ski until 430.  We had some that stayed strictly on the green beginner runs,  several headed for the top of the mountain to try their hand at the blue intermediate runs and one that went down the black expert run.  Dr Phillips held the fort down and watched our gear at the lodge. We had two that earned the ski snowsport merit badge on the trip. Everyone progressed in their skills. There was some falls along the way as the progression occurred. Everyone even despite falls and struggles at times had a great time. Everyone changed and gear was loaded. After a stop at Ryan’s Buffet in Asheville we arrived back home at 945p.

It is popcorn selling season!

PopCornBoyScoutScout parents,

This is a great way for scouts to add money to their scout account to fund their camping trips.  The troop does NOT make any money from the sales.  All the money earned goes directly to the scout’s account.
In order for our troop to provide this opportunity to the scouts, we need an adult to volunteer to coordinate the sale for our troop.   If you are interested in possibly being the coordinator for our troop this year, please let me know.
Thank you,
Lisa P.
