Reminders

Troop 540,

The VFW needs volunteers to help out at their breakfast being held by the VFW Ladies Aux. 8858. This will be held from 8:30-11:30am at St. Anastasia Church in Harriman, in the Cardinal O’Connor Room on Sunday, November 2nd. If you are able to make this, please email Mrs. Lamarch and let her know. I have copied her to this email to make it easier to reply to her.

The other reminder is for the Carousel cake fundraiser. I have the order sheets from Mrs. Donahue. You can down the forms here and here. The order forms are due by Tuesday, November 11th. Please return them to Mrs. Donahue. Each scout will need to sell at least three cakes or pies. The money raised for this will go to troop related activities. A percentage of this will also go into each scout’s account. This will be applied to the scout camping trips and other related activities that the troop does throughout the year. If the scout doesn’t help to earn the money in the fundraisers, then the families will be charged for the activities that he participates in throughout the scout year.

Lastly, if you brought home a tent from the last camping trip and you haven’t handed it in yet, please do so at the next meeting.

Thank you.

Sincerely,

Jon Hess – Scoutmaster, Troop 540

Update

All,
     A couple of things:
  1. We will gather for a Memorial Service at St. Anastasia Harriman, NY on Monday at 10:00am in observance of Memorial Day. The Troop then marches into the village of Harriman for a POW/MIA ceremony. This is a great opportunity to show respect for those who have made the ultimate sacrifice for this great Country. Please attend if your around.
  2. On Saturday May 31 we will be hiking and fishing into Harriman State Park. We will meet around 7:00am and wrap up by dinner. More details will follow Tuesday.
  3. The final chance for the early bird price for summer camp is May 31. Please bring in your check Tuesday night so you can take advantage of the price break.
  4. Our annual Rafting trip is June 13,14 and 15. Please sign up Tuesday.
  5. The final Court Of Honor/ last meeting will be at the Monroe American Legion on Lake Road on June 10 at 7:00pm. We will cook burgers and dogs. Please bring the family.
