On March 29th instead of swimming we will be shooting 22 rifles at Sams Gun Club. We will meet at St. Catherine’s at 6:00 and be back around 8:30. Scouts are to wear their Scout Shirts and follow all rules. I need about 6 to 7 dad to attend for safety reasons. Dads may not get time on the range, in this case Scouts go first. Any questions call Bob 206-522-0365.
A big congratulations to the 7 Webelos who received their Arrow of Light badge in Pack 301 (St. Matthews) this February! 5 of them have chosen to join our troop and several even went on the February campout to Rasar state park. A big welcome to the Troop is extended to these boys and their families!
The pictures for the January and February outings have been posted on the website. Check them out!

Bob’s latest annoucement:
Now that I have totally messed up the calendar for 2010, and it’s only January. I have another change for the Campout for January. The weekend will be 16th-17th. Sorry for the confusion. I will need drivers we are going to Deception Pass State Park. If you can drive, please let me know.
The campout to Deception Pass has been rescheduled for the weekend of Jan 23-24 instead of 9-10 and the Troop meeting on Jan 18th has been cancelled for Martin Luther King day.
Bob sent out an e-mail talking about how our scouts running the tree lot year after year has touched one life and how she has, in return, touched ours. I asked him to post it to our website as well to share and it is now available under our History page: http://www.troop151.net/history/
Thanks Bob! Merry Christmas to All!
Pictures for the August summer trip down to California have now been posted to the web, so take a look. Also, I discovered that Facebook pages can receive updates from blogs but Facebook groups cannot…guess which one we currently have? So, I created a Facebook Page for Troop 151. Please take a look, become a fan, and invite your family and friends to become fans, too!
Enjoy!
