Escanaba, Michigan
It was a snowy night. No school but we tried to have a meeting anyway. Eight Scouts attended. The first thing they did was shovel the sidewalks at the church entrances.
Jesse helped teach the guys about tracking that can be used at the upcoming Klondike on Jan. 26.
Had a great time bowling at the Bowl-A-Rama on New Year’s Eve. It was the normal night for a meeting. Had pizza and pop along with games.
Ayden bowled a “turkey,” three strikes in a row. Congrats to him.
The Scouts made a turkey dinner with all the trimmings. It included stuffing, mashed potatoes, rolls, corn, cranberry sauce and cheese cake.
The Scouts made sugar cutout cookies and decorated them with holiday candy pieces. The followed a recipe to make the dough. Mrs. Bennetts helped with rolling out the dough. Almost all of the cookies were gone by the time the meeting was done. Merry Christmas Scouts!
Our Scouts were invited back to help usher at the launching of the USS St. Louis Litteral Combat Ship at Marinette Marine. They handed out programs at the entrance to the building. They then walked out to watch the launching of the ship. The met with Congressman Jack Bergman who was one of the speakers at the event and with the head of the shipyard. She gave the guys medallions marking the event as a thank you.
