All,

We have 16 boys signed up for Camp Hale on June 10-16.  Transportation and final planning is currently taking place.

To ensure that Troop 505 is registered by May 4 we are asking that all boys determine their 4 merit badges for Camp Hale by next Monday, April 23.

April 23 is the deadline to submit your 4 merit badges to Mr. Marty Shaver at mshaver@austin.rr.com.   (please copy me at bradleynapp@yahoo.com )

If 4 merit badges are not selected by the Scout by Monday, April 23, the troop will assign 4 so that the troop registration can occur on time.

Merit badge offerings at Camp Hale are found at:
