Don’t forget the 2009 Merit Badge Symposium on Saturday May 3, 2009. Make sure you read the Merit badge book before the Symposium.

November Campout

There was a campout on the November 14 at Samuel P. Taylor state park.
There were 24 individuals who went on this trip. They had 3 sites reserved; the park said 8 persons maximum for each site, so they just squeezed in body-wise.

I did not put this on earlier because I did not go, but a most of the Minutemen went.
