Minutes from Troop 9 Committee Meeting on October 10, 2006

In Attendance:
Dave Filpus, Wendy Painter, Lisa Ripperton, John Risk, Gayle Risk, Dave Scocca

Meeting called to order by Dave Filpus.

Halloween: Halloween falls on a Tuesday night this year.  We reached consensus that taking that week off was probably the best way to handle the conflict with the traffic downtown.

Minutes:  The minutes from the previous meeting are on the website and were accepted.

Treasurer's Report: Lisa Ripperton reported that the current bank balance is $3274.03; some checks for dues have been turned in but not deposited.

Trips & Activities:  The preliminary calendar of trips and activities was passed out.  There was some uncertainty as to the exact school holidays surrounding the three-day trip planned for November 10-12.  There is not yet a set date for summer camp.

The District Camporee is this coming weekend at Camp Reeves.

Uniforms:  The newly-christened Dragon Patrol will need patrol patches.

Weekly Program:  Wendy reported that Wayne is working with the youth leaders on the program, and that they are currently working on orienteering.

Church Construction: tabled for the time being; no news

Recruiting: Gregg has called packs to encourage Webelos visits at the upcoming camporee.

The date has not yet been set for Philip Hock's Eagle Court of Honor; this had been considered for the October 3 Troop Court of Honor but the scheduling did not work out.

The meeting was adjourned.  Next committee meeting will be Tuesday, November 14.
