Due to the weather forecast, all members of the Troop will arrive Saturday morning (NO Friday night camping). Please arrive around 8-8:30am on Saturday. If scouts need to be dropped off a bit later because of the schedule change, we understand. We will be camping in tents (troop provided) Saturday night into Sunday.
The Troop meeting on Tuesday will be our uniform inspection and troop elections. Please refer to your scout handbook for proper uniform guidance. Make sure that your current rank and all earned merit badges are on your uniform and sash. We love seeing all our Troop 1 neckerchiefs, but others that were earned/awarded at scout camp (e.g. polar bear plunge, honor camper, etc) are acceptable.
For 2027, the Troop will be going back to Camp Read in the Adirondacks! The Troop will be attending summer camp during week 3, from July 18-24. More details to come in early 2027.
I'm building multiple shelters to house feral cats for Putnam AdvoCATS for my Eagle Project. I'm also running a supply drive to help gather necessary supplies. See details in the attached flyer or on the Band post. If you have any questions or wish to help support my project efforts, please reach out to me on Band.
Prepare to come help the Troop at our annual Applebee's pancake fundraiser Saturday April 3 from 8-10am. Every scout, whether you participate or not, is responsible for a minimum of 3 tickets ($10 each) - we encourage scouts to reach out to family and friends to join us for this fundraiser to benefit Carmel Troop 1. Guests can arrive anytime between 8-9:30am to be served a pancake breakfast that includes bacon, coffee and juice.
