Meeting tonight 9/25/2008

Tonight is, I think, Back-to-School Night at Clarke.  I will be at the Parish Hall as early as possible, but I probably cannot get there until around 7:00 PM.  If another couple of adults can get there earlier in case some families want an early dropoff, that would be fine with me.  I will try […]

This is also last call for any adults and scouts that wish to try to go up a little earlier on Sat morning and turn it into a two day backpacking trip.
We are not positive that it will happen,  but need to know what the real interest and commitment level is.   Backpacking would be about […]

Responses to question about bikeway plowing

I sent a note out about plowing the Minuteman Bikeway during the winter figuring that many Scout parents are as active as the Scouts in the family.
I got 12 responses.  10 were in favor of plowing.  One was opposed to plowing.  One suggested plowing half and leaving half for other uses.
Those who favored plowing tended […]
