Our troop is planning to run a food concession serving fried dough and drinks.

Proceeds are used to fund troop activites. This is a fund raising event, all scouts
are requested to contribute some time helping to run these concessions.
Scouts will also be helping the Octoberfest committee throughout the day, and also
with cleanup. Each scout will have some free time to eat and "check things out"
So remember your money.





Survival Campout

October 20,21,22

This is a "survival" style camping adventure! All Participants will be camping with only the gear
they bring themselves. Each participant will be doing (and carrying) thier oun gear and food!
Please be sure to take enough WATER. Each person should have at least 3 - 16oz bottles of water
per day. (more if you plan to cook with it).

Older scouts should have a good idea on what to bring. Younger scouts and first-time "survivors" are
encouraged to ask a leader for help in planning what to bring. It would be a good idea to plan your
meals so that there is little or no cleanup ( tin-foil is the best ). As the only water you will have is
what you carry in yourself.
