Ice Road Sledders Klondike!

1/19/2015

 
Ice Road Sledders Klondike this coming weekend

For the folks that signed up to participate at the District Klondike this coming weekend here is the permission form and the Ice Road Sledders Guide.  The Ice Road Sledders Guide, please read the guide!

Some administrative details:

-          Location for this event is: Vietnam Veterans park, Treble Cove Rd, Billerica, MA.   Easy commute for us.

-          There is an option to camp this weekend at the event.  A few of us are  planning to camp Friday night,  as of now a total of 8 (4 scouts, 4 adults) have signed up for camping.  We are not planning to camp Saturday night.  If more are interested in camping Friday night please let me know before Tuesday as we need to get the food.

-          If you’re not camping but signed up to participate in the Klondike,  please be there at 8 AM.  There is an SPL/patrol meeting at 8:45. 

o   I have not set up any meeting location for car pooling as the leadership will be staying at the event Friday night and be there Saturday morning to start set up.  For the Scouts that are attending only for the day and want to car pool that will be up to the scouts to coordinate.

-          Cost for the event is $20. 

Please bring permission slip and fee to the meeting Thursday.  There will be a drop box for the slips an checks at the meeting or give them to me.

There will probably be more correspondence before Thursday but wanted to get the basic information out to the troop. 

Let me know if you have any questions.  Weather is looking great for next weekend!

Thank you

Mr. Litchfield

Klondike Derby Reminder - Sat 1-24-2014

1/15/2015

 
Klondike Derby Reminder - Saturday January 24, 2014

Any Webelos Scouts are welcome to join us for the troop meeting at 7 PM on Thursday January 22 for Klondike prep. 

For the Klondike Derby, all participants need to be prepared for the outdoor winter weather with the following:

  • Waterproof boots; boys showing up in sneakers cannot participate.
  • Gloves and hat. In fact, these are so important bring at least two.
  • 3-plus layers of clothes. This is now a standard: a wicking layer (long underwear), an insulation layer (fleece or wool sweater for example) and a wind/rain protection layer (waterproof winter coat). This should also be applied for pants (ski or snow pants over a fleece or insulating layer and long underwear .
  • Scarf or Balaclava – something to cover your face – probably in fleece but other materials work well too
  • Water bottle with water
  • Nice to have: glasses/goggles 

Welcome!
