Scouts and Parents,

We will have our troop meeting at Camp Allen tonight.

For those who asked the question, "where is it?", this should answer it (look at the attachment).

Please arrive at the parking lot prior to 6:30P, for those involved with setup - 6:15P.

Plan on 10 minutes walking time to the site.

The wind is a huge issue and we are working on the arrangements.  Be prepared to cook on stoves instead of charcoal fires on the ground (just incase).

I am checking the site and making arrangements for plan B cooking. 

I will pick up stoves, fuel bottles, tarps, twine and misc.  I have charcoal in case that is possible.

If we need to cook on stoves instead of the ground, a small pan to put your "stuff" in would help.  Foil on the burner also works.  Don't forget Tongs.

If we cannot cook on the ground, consider this:  Part of being prepared is knowing when to say no.

Burning down the woods is not an option!

Hey Scouts,

My dad and I found some great videos and created links for you.

These videos are for 2nd Class and First Class requirements.

We did not forget the adult leaders.  There are some great videos for them too.  Well, My dad thinks so.

Check them out.  Click on "Links" under the "Menu" scetion to the left.  Then look in this folder:  Youth and Adult Training Videos - 2013"

Hello to the Troop 414 Family!

Some of you may have heard of the upcoming
(August 4-5) Pan Mass Challenge, if not you should take a look -
www.pmc.org. The PMC is one of the nation's largest and most successful
fundraising events. All funds (100%) of the money raised goes to support
the fantastic work being done at the Dana-Farber Cancer Institute. Well,
two of our Troop 414 Family, David Hammer and Larry Gagnon, will be
participating in this magnificent event. If the battle against cancer is
important to you as it is for David and Larry, please consider going to
www.pmc.org/egifts and sponsoring one or both these gentlemen. You can
also follow the event on NECN during the weekend.

Be well and as cyclists say, "keep the rubber side down".  Kyle E.

Troop 414 once again rallies together to thank the Bedford Presbyterian Church Community for their support of our Troop by inviting them to Brunch that we will provide and serve in Class A uniform on Sunday February 12 after the 10:00am Service. Mr. Dieter will organize the Scouts to play an active role in the Service - all Scouts are expected to attend. After the service, Troop 414 invites the entire congregation to a "Thank You Brunch" in the Hall where we hold our meetings. Hosting and providing this Brunch is our annual opportunity to Thank the whole Church Community for sponsoring our Troop.
