Catholic Troops of St. George

June Camping Trips

We have two camping trips coming up in June, just over a month away! Each family is encouraged to participate in one or the other.

  1. Senior cadets are going to the BWCA the first full week in June. Lots of planning and organization is still needed for the last 2 meetings in May before the trip.

  2. Junior cadets and those not going to the BWCA are invited to go camping at the Beaver Valley camp the weekend of June 8th thru the 10th. We will stay in the same spot we did last Fall.

January Meeting Schedule

Happy New Year! Our meetings this month will be pushed back one week from the normal schedule, so they are on January 9th and January 23rd. See you then!

Winter Camping

The dates are set for our upcoming winter camp-out. We will be staying in the camper cabins at Forestville State Park on the weekend of February 16-18, 2018. Mark your calendars!

A New Season

JMJ

Our first meeting is a week from tomorrow at the school cafeteria at 6:30 pm. I want to cover some points from our planning meeting.

  1. National Dues for 2017/2018 are $30 per cadet and $30 for each dad. The Troop will cover the cost of each dad.
  2. We have decided to NOT sell wreaths and poinsettias this year due to lack of participation and not receiving a big enough return on our investment. Instead we are asking for a $100 program fee per family. This will replace what we earned in wreath sales. There may also be some added cost to each family for camping trips to cover the cost of the food.

    Please note that we made these changes to make covering the costs easier. I in no way intend to deprive any child from participating in the program. If there is a hardship, talk to me so we can work something out.

  3. All dads will be taking part in the training/teaching program throughout the year.

  4. Uniforms - We have them and we will use them. All boys are expected to be wearing the green TSG supplied t-shirt at all meetings. All dads are to wear the TSG polo if they have them. If you don’t have these, please let me know and we will remedy the problem.
