The Kayaking Finale, July 4th, and preparation for Summer Camp...

The Kayaking trip to Turn Island went very well. We shaved 30% of our travel time on our return trip (confidence!) and returned most of the gear we had borrowed before the day was out. I will post pictures soon.

In preparation for Summer Camp, we will be having an Scout Free Physical Hour, offered by Dr. Burke Gossam of San Juan Healthcare Associates, on Friday July 3rd from 10:00 to 11:00am. Dr. Gossam has offered, for any and all Scouts who have their new medical forms filled out, to provide free physicals at this time. The new physical is annual, so get it while you can! The form is called new_physical.pdf, in the box.net widget to the right of this column, or you can drop by The Big Store, where I will have additional copies available for anyone who needs them.

We will be meeting at 10:am on Saturday July 4th, across the street from the interesection of Price and Spring streets. (The old Flying Burrito...) The parade starts at 10:30am; Class A uniforms for everyone who has one!!

Yours in Scouting,
