After Action Reports
Highway cleanup-30 people split up into 2 groups. Thank you to Katherine Pierce for allowing us to have a bonfire at her house. The weather was great!
October Pack meeting- The Hutch fire dept brought out the ladder truck and all but 2 dens had a chance to go for a ride on the ladder. There will be a re-schedule next spring for those who didn’t get a chance to have a ride. Everyone seemed to have a great time.
Church camp-out- Went well. A good mix of free time and good activities. Maybe next yr. maybe put a few skits together, sing a couple songs, to get them to wind down. Maybe think of something other than beagles to serve on Saturday, perhaps yogurt, or fruit. Clean up went fairly well. The movie was a good choice.

Tips for next year on selling wreaths: Make sure all wreath books are up-to date. We found books with the wrong prices in them. Maybe have a proofreader go through them. Try to get out and sell right away. This money goes towards advancements camp, and activities. If we have another couple years like this we will be looking at major cuts again.
