First Class Requirement #5 Outing – October 7

Posted on by

TROOP 365 FIRST CLASS REQUIREMENT OUTING
(For those Scouts who need to satisfy Requirement #5 for First Class Scout)

MONDAY 7 OCTOBER 2013, 7PM-8PM

We will be meeting at the Worthington Municipal Building (6550 North High Street) in the City Council Chambers at 7pm in full uniform (no soccer shorts). City Councilwoman Rachael Dorothy will give us a short talk on your constitutional rights and obligations as a US citizen. We will then sit through the first 30 minutes of a Worthington City Council meeting to see our local government in action. At 8pm, we will return to Worthington United Methodist Church for the last 30 minutes of the regular meeting. All participants can then be picked up after the regular meeting adjournment (approximately 8:30pm).

Please RSVP to Paul Dorothy (paulwdorothy@gmail.com or 614-580-6202) so that we can make sure we have enough adult volunteers/drivers to get everyone back to the church. All parents are welcome to attend if they would like.

Posted on by

DISTRICT CAMPOREE OCT. 4- 6, 2013
CIVIL WAR COMMEMORATION
THE BATTLE OF SPROAT LAKE

When: We meet at the Church Friday, October 4, at 5:30PM to load up, and leave soon thereafter.
We return to the Church Sunday, October 6 by 12:00 noon.

Where: Camping at Camp Chief Logan

What: Become an enlisted man of the 30th Ohio Volunteer Infantry during the Civil War (1861-1865) so that you can camp like a Civil War soldier; learn period camping techniques such as primitive fire building, map reading, semaphore and signaling, knots and lashings, first aid, as well as marching and drilling. Meals will include cooking in a dutch oven. You will also earn “chits” at each station that you can use to “purchase” your lunch at the Camp Sutler’s tent (actually included in the fee). A mandatory rifle safety briefing at 8:30AM Saturday will allow you to shoot the black powder rifle, a privilege most Scouts don’t get a chance to do!

Cost: $30.00 — covers transportation, food, lodging/district camp fee.

David Williams Eagle Project – Tool Donations

Posted on by

Dear Scouts,

If you have any used tools you would like to donate to the Ronald McDonald House, please bring them to the scout meeting tomorrow night (9/23) and I will collect them at the meeting.

To go along with building the workbench for my Eagle Project, I will also be collecting tools for the Ronald McDonald House. These tools are vitally needed so their volunteer craftsmen don’t have to constantly run to the store to buy tools or spend their valuable time going around looking to borrow them. I would like to stress however that I am mostly looking for gently used tools that people aren’t using anymore. I will be more than happy to take new tools if you are just itching to donate, but any tools will suffice. I have a list of the specific tools they requested below. Having said this, any tools will be accepted and greatly appreciated! I can also obtain a charitable gift receipt from the Ronald McDonald House if you would like.

Requested Tools: Vices, Hammers, Screwdrivers, Socket Sets, Cordless Drills, Nuts and Bolts, Electrical Connectors, Picture Anchors

Thanks for your time,

David Williams
