Monday 5-22 Plans

Good afternoon everyone,

Here we are wrapping up another exciting week. As many of you will see in our Facebook page (https://www.facebook.com/groups/ILTroop275), 2 of our Scouts (Ivan & Jake) as well one of our leaders (Luke) and myself were able to join the Brotherhood in the Order of the Arrow this weekend. I want to congratulate them all for their hard work and achievements.

Tomorrow, in preparation for Memorial Day, we will have a few Scouts walk across to the cemetery and place flags on each of the graves of our veterans. After this is done will have an Orienteering session for everyone.

Lets see what we have coming up:
– Summer camp fees will be finalize this week, those that are attending, please look for a separate email from me.
