This year two groups of our scouts went on two separate Philmont treks. They hiked across the mountains and had plenty of fun and exercise. They also had a lot of activities on the way through the trails including rock-climbing.    

This summer scouts went to camp Rainey Mountain in Georgia they had a great time completing merit badges. Some scouts even went on a white-water rafting trip. 

During the PLC's annual planning session in May, they chose for the Troop to go camping next April in Texas's newest state park, Palo Pinto Mountains State Park. This means that we will not be attending Camporee next year.

The George Stake District Advancement Committee is in need of volunteers to serve as representatives on the District Advancement Committee.  The representatives on the committee assist the District Advancement Chair in reviewing Eagle Project Proposals and serve as Council/District Representatives on the Eagle Board of Reviews.
