This year's Scouting for Food drive was a huge success. Thank you so much to all the scouts who helped donate, pass out fliers, and pick up food!

Upcoming Troop Meetings

• We will be having our next PLC meeting on November 21 at 6:00 p.m. The November PLC meeting will be a week earlier than usual and not on Thanksgiving.
• The last Troop meeting of November will be the 21th. Scouts should be in class A uniform for that meeting.
• Please reminder that Troop meetings start at 7:00 and PLC members should be there 10-15 minutes early for last minute instructions. I realize some of our Scouts have another activity immediately prior to the Troop meeting, but we ask everyone else to be courteous and be on time to the start of the meeting. 

Upcoming Events

• Sharp Park Beach cleanup is on the calendar - please see the website for details.

This Week's Announcements

Aaron led scouts in constructing planter boxes for Sunshine Gardens Elementary School for his Eagle project. The scouts cut, sanded, drilled, and stained the wood, completing two beautiful planters!

For his Eagle project, Jordan built a chain link fence on November 2nd and 3rd at John Muir. Scouts helped dig holes, install metal posts, attach wire mesh, and secure with top rails. The finished product looks amazing!

At Pinnacles, the scouts were able to hike and see beautiful views! They explored caves, practiced scout skills, and played games at camp. Those who hiked to the peak had the opportunity to earn their pinnacles peak rocket in the "Rim of the Bay" series!

At Boulder Creek Scout Reservation, scouts participated in a two-night Gold Rush Campout. They participated in numerous activities including archery, bullet casting, candle-making, gold panning, and tomahawk!
