Upcoming Activities
Pioneer Coal Mine Camping Trip (May 18th -20th) - This is a first

camping
trip and coal mine tour. We will also do a steam train ride and a visit
to Centralia. The troop will cover the entire cost. The individual times may change a
little bit as well. We should have lots of chances to do some good
cooking on this trip.....start thinking of some meal ideas. Perhaps the
adults will be willing to do some judging and award a trophy?
