Once again, we will have our annual Christmas Party at the Ali Babba Grotto Hall on Perkins-Jones Road - just down from the K-Mart distribution center. All family members are invited.

From 2-5 p.m. that afternoon Scouts will play games and other fun activities - ranging from indoor board games to the annual football game outside. Troop Historians will have troop scrapbooks on display. There will be Coleman equipment available for sale as well.

At 5:30, we will sit down to a covered dish dinner. Someone from Eagle's Wings should call you regarding what to bring. You will also be asked how many adults/children in your party will be attending. Please label all serving dishes and utensils. Many families bring in the same items. We will provide plates, cups forks, knives, and spoons. Scouts should plan to bring their uniforms and change before we eat.

We will follow the dinner with our Winter Court of Honor. Besides the regular awards the boys have earned, we will award the prizes for the top sellers from this year s fundraisers. We will close with a slideshow of recent campouts. We hope everyone can attend!

Documents to get into Canada and Back:

Youth (under 18) will need an original Birth Certificate plus a notarized letter.
The troop will provide the letter & notary.

Adults will need a Passport or a Passport Card
The Passport Card is more economical if you do not foresee needing a passport in the future.  As of this writing, it cost $55.  Check out the links for details.  You should APPLY EARLY to ensure you have it on time.

In addition, all Youth will need to stay with the group when we cross both ways. 
Otherwise they will need additional letters to cross.

 
 

This is the troop's signature big trip.  We first did this trip in 1975 and this will be our 19th trip back.  The troop will base camp for the week on the shores of Whitefish Lake.  Each morning there will be visits to interpretive trails, the museum, the outfitter's store, etc.  Afternoons and evenings will be spent with our canoes, sailboat, swimming, volleyball on the beach, etc.  We will highlight our cooking skills this week with a chance to complete almost all of Cooking Merit Badge in a single week as well as a troop-wide feast on our last day.  Scouts will also take a canoe out-trip one day during the week.  Wildlife abounds in this Canadian wilderness and Scouts will likely see moose, loons, and maybe even a black bear.  There is a wolf howl one evening where they will learn about and possibly hear one of Algonquin's three wolf packs.  There is no trip quite like this one and Scouts and Patrols come back as much better campers than when they left.

HIGH ADVENTURE CANOE OPTION
August 10-13, 2011 (Approximate dates)

Scouts who are FIRST CLASS with SWIMMING and CANOEING MERIT BADGES are eligible to go up sometime the previous week.  Dr. LaPolla will be leading a canoe trip into the park interior where Scouts will take all their gear, food, etc. and paddle and portage between these remote lakes.  The trip is physically challenging, but anyone who has ever done it considers it among their finest experiences in Scouting.  This trip is limited in size and anyone wishing to attend must be physically able to meet the requirements.  Canoeists will arrive on Whitefish Lake the same Saturday evening that the troop arrives for Base Camp.  After a celebration and steak dinner, they will integrate into the regular patrols for the coming week.  Anyone wishing more information should contact Dr. LaPolla.
