Notes from Monday Nights Meeting

First off I would like to thank Doug Vogalsang from the National Weather Service in Memphis for taking the time to come and speak to us. He gave a very informative talk on what causes storms how they are tracked and how the warnings are issued during severe weather. I also want to thank Mike Ault for setting this up and working with the Troop on getting our weather merit badge. It was great to see the weeblo's come out and join us for a meeting, they are finishing up their arrow of light requirements and will soon be ready to bridge over, we hope that they all will continue there scouting activities and become part of our troop in December. Other things discussed at the meeting are listed below.
1. Scouting for Food is the next two weekends I will post the time and place to meet Saturday morning tomorrow.
2. MBU is coming up in December and your $7 should be paid by November 22nd for preregistration.
3. Saturday November 27th we are planning a day activity and a campfire that night with a flag disposal ceremony.
4. December 17th - 19th we will be making what has become our annual trip Blue mountain Church Camp. This is a really good opportunity for our adults that don't like to sleep in tents to go on an outing with us. There will also be a service project attached to help defer some of the cost of renting the cabin.
