Troop 160 Lexington

Hi, all,
It’s that time of the year: medical forms update.

From Scoutmaster Hank Manz:
If you aren’t going to camp, first turn green with envy, then hit DELete.
Just a few things for those who are.
I know that the camp asked for soft bags if at all possible, but let’s face it–if you usually take a trunk, then take it and we will deal with it when […]
