RSVP ASAP to Mr. Herbell and turn in a permission slip by the Committee meeting on 11/27/12 or e-mail the slip to jeff.herbell@kp.org by Tuesday 11/27/12.

Purpose: This is our annual Troop Leadership Training. We will have a fun filled weekend that will cover Team Building, Problem Solving, Troop Position Descriptions and Expectations, E.D.G.E., S. M.A.R.T, Goal setting planning, etc. We will have fun learning more about each other, learning new skills, practicing those skills and will then apply them to our troop situations, positions and goals so that we can improve ourselves, our patrols and our Troop.

We will stay in a warm cabin, so you only need to bring a water bottle, your Class A & B uniforms, sleeping bag, camping toiletries, sleeping clothes, clean shoes to wear in the cabin & outdoor clothes; we plan to spend time outdoors as well so dress for the weather. Food and snacks will be provided.

Friday has always been a fun night with cards, board games, popcorn, etc.  Saturday we have a simple no cook breakfast and start right in on training.  We order pizza and salad from Augies.  There may be an hour long service project for us Saturday after lunch.
