Hartwick Pines Snowshoeing

Does this interest anyone?

Guided Snowshoe Hikes
We (Hartwick Pines S. P.) will be offering four guided snowshoe hikes
on four Saturdays (Jan.
19, Feb. 2&16, March 1) again this Winter. These snowshoe hikes begin at
the Visitor Center at 1pm with a short program in the auditorium and
make an approximately 1 mile hike to the Logging Museum where there will
be a campfire and hot cider. Learn about snowshoeing throughout
history, the winter wildlife at Hartwick Pines and how the loggers
worked in the winter. This is geared to beginners and we have snowshoes
for those who do not have their own pair. This is a free program, but
reservations are required, as there is a 20 person limit. A motor
vehicle permit is required for entry. Call (989) 348-2537 or email
kasmerc@michigan.gov or burgr@michigan.gov for more information.

Regards,
Cathy

Preparing for Bicycle Outing

The following link on our troop's web site provides links to various helpful forms and checklists. http://www.math.msu.edu/%7Emccarthy/troop272/forms/

This page can also be accessed from the home page by clicking on "Resources" and then clicking on "troop forms."

If you wish, you may go to this site and download a copy for yourself of whatever forms will help you to accomplish the responsibilities you have in the troop, particularly in regard to the upcoming "Hart/Montague Linear Trail & Camp Owasippe" aka "The Bicycle Outing" outing. In particular, the PLC would want to have a copy of the PLC  Outdoor Program Checklist, the Patrol Duty Roster, the Program form, and the Patrol Menu form. Everyone will want to have a copy of the Checklists they need to pack gear.

The  PLC made plans last night for the following upcoming activities:

April 3 Troop Meeting (Court of Honor postponed). We will be preparing for the Bicycle outing and the Court of Honor.

April 10 Court of Honor. Parents: please plan to attend. This evening will wrap up the Spring Popcorn Sale.

April 17 Troop Meeting. We will be preparing for the Pushcart Derby and collecting permission slips and money for the Bicycle outing. We will also have a "shakedown" for the Bicycle outing. Boys will need to bring their equipment, including bicycles and helmets.

April 21 We will be meeting at the Welch's at 2:30 to build the pushcart.

April 24 PLC Meeting. We will be planning for the Pushcart event, the Bottle Drive and the meetings in May, as well as beginning to plan troop events at Northwoods.

April 27-29 Bicycle outing, camping at Camp Owasippe in Blue Lake Township.

Finally, you will want to add Scout Day at Spartan Speedway on Friday, May 11 to your calendars. Details concerning leaders, cost and time will be coming.
