Canoe Trip
===============
The canoe trip will be returning to St. Brigids between 2 and 2:30 PM today. Keep in mind that once they arrive they have to hang the tents and get the gear unloaded. If there is some extra time, we are going to do a quick debrief while the event is fresh in the mind of participants.
If you are a canoe trip parent and if you read this before the arrival time, call anybody else you know who has a Scout on the trip so we can get out the word.
Early word is that the trip was a total failure. That is if you hate sunshine, warm water, soft ground and easy camping. If you like those things, then the trip was a complete success.
Memorial Day Parade
===================
Thank you to:
John Caples
Patrick Foley
Ryan Woodhouse
David Kirby
who all took some time out of their weekend to march in the Memorial Day parade and take part in the ceremonies.
We also salute our brothers and their leaders from Troop 119 who had a very nice showing from the troop and helped remind people that Scouting is still alive and well in Lexington.
Help Needed
================
A couple of local leaders, one of whom is Skip Irving, the first Scoutmaster of Troop 119 after it started up again after a brief hiatus, will be receiving awards at the Depot this Thursday. I need a couple of Scouts for the Oath and Law. It will conflict just a bit with our usual meeting, but this is an important event. Please respond to me directly if you are interested, but do it now so I won’t panic.
