Spring Popcorn Sale

 

Baraboo Circus Heritage

This is an opportunity to earn money for those Scouts that didn’t sell wreaths in the fall.

Troop 4 will be selling Trail’s End Popcorn at the Wal-mart on Highway 164 in Waukesha on March 19 from 10 am to 3 pm.

Proceeds from the popcorn sale will be evenly divided among the scouts that work.

Please see Tracy Schwartz for more information and to sign up.

If any Scout is interested in doing a take-order sale (that’s where you get orders and deliver the popcorn later), please see Tracy.

 

The first outing of the year will be to Baraboo Circus Heritage. Activities Include: Circus Spirit Night, Tours of the Scouting Museum, Hiking the Circus Heritage Trail, Roustabout Roundup Skills Competition, See a Circus Performance, The Sideshow, a Pinewood Derby (bring a car you’ve already made), Miniature Circus Wagon Contest, Dutch Over Desert Bake Off, and a Center Ring Stage Show.

As this is an overnight campout, you will be required to fill out a class 1 medical form (available from Liz). Permission slips are also now available.

Recruitment

 

Waukesha Rotary Pancake Festival

Welcome to Ben and Zachary! We also have four Webelos II that are going to cross over into the Troop in April!

The Webelos II from Pack 163 will be crossing over at the end of April.

As a “Welcome to the Troop” activity, we are going to Baraboo Circus Heritage.

 

The Pancake Festival was a smashing success! Over 2000 people came and ate pancakes!
