April 16-18

The April campout is scheduled to be the Flour Bomb Campout but there hasn’t been any evidence that the flour bombs have been made; so the game is likely to become capture the flag.  We have reserved all of Stripling Island at Sid Richardson Scout Ranch for this event. We will meet at the church at 6:00 on Friday and leave as soon as we are loaded.  This will be a great weekend to unwind after the strenuous WW sequence.

Each patrol is responsible for its own food a food preparation, so it is very important to make sure that you make you commitments by Wednesday evening so that those who are responsible to purchase the food know how much to buy.  Remember, if you commit to attend on Wednesday and change your mind after that, you need to pay for your part of the food.

So please contact the food purchaser and the SPL Nick Ronalder (817 366 8336;burocks92@yahoo.com). Remember, good communication means contacting Nick to tell him, “Yes, you are coming”, or “No, you are not coming”.  Silence is not the same as “No”.  Everyone should be in contact with Nick tonight!!!

There is no camping fee; however, you will need to pay for your share of the food. We will not stop on the trip home and we should be back to the church before 1:00 Sunday.

Scouts, please note:  Scoutmasters are not aware of the rules of your game and cannot help in resolving rules violations. Please do not confuse us with questions about cheating.  Apparently, because the grounds are an island, you were out of bounds, if you are wet.  Other than that, we know nothing.
