Troop 160 Film Festival presents “The Rocketeer,” plus assorted short flicks, on Thursday, December 28, at 6:15. The movie at RFK Hall starts at 6:30, and pickup is at 9:15. Bring snacks and drinks to share.
For more information contact John or Lynne Woodhouse.
(Since school is out there’s no regular meeting.)
If anybody has pictures of the various Troop events that they’d be willing to share, please feel free to send them to the Webmasters any time (160webmaster -at- troop160 -dot- com). They’re always popular with Scouts and adults, and we have plenty of room for them. Remember, the main Troop photo gallery is here.
We had a great time on our climbing trip at Boulder Morty on Saturday, December 9. The staff was impressed that all the scouts had been trained on belaying with the same equipment that they use. Thank you Glen.
Boulder Morty has something for all levels of climbers. Since everyone could belay, we got a lot of climbs in. All the adults got to climb as well. The facility has a nice layout. There is a viewing area that has tables, and that is where we had lunch. The staff recommended a great local pizza place. It worked out very well.
Two of the new scouts who never climbed before said the trip was awesome. One pulled out his requirements book for the Climbing merit badge when he got home and said he couldn’t wait until Rumney! This coming May we have our next climbing trip scheduled in Rumney, NH. Mark it on your calendars.
Steve
