Troop 483 Weekly Update
This Week
Troop 483
Scoutmaster Minute
A huge shout out to Mr. Pooley for organizing a great trip. It takes a lot of time to organize a great event like this and we really appreciate all the time spent to make this happen.
Now, onto our summer plans. Our main summer events are backpacking, summer camp, Philmont, then we will close out the summer with a San Clemente Beach trip. Keep an eye out for more information on these events and on local hiking opportunities throughout the summer.
Looking forward to a great summer ahead.
In scouting,
Vicky Silcock
Committee Chair

2 Tunnels to Nowhere 5 Mile Hike

Two Tunnels to Nowhere
Did you know that requirement #3B for 2nd class rank requires a 5 mile hike. I am leading some cub scouts on a hike early on Saturday May 21st on the Tunnels to Nowhere trail. I want to offer this trip to any Troop 483 Scout that would like to attend but especially the new scouts so they can fulfill requirement 3B. It will also require some map and compass work on that day. Please sign up on the link below.
