The Troop solved their transportation problem for the January camping trip to Blue Mountain by renting a van from Trinity Episcopal Church (Bless ’em!). One van in place of three cars certainly saved fuel (even if two cars were non-existant.)
The weather change also changed the ice skating and sledding to hiking and exploring but a good time was had by all.
The next camping will be the Senior “Ozark Fest” at Cedarledge with all the other St. Louis Area Council Troops, March 29 – 30 – 31.
There will be arts and crafts square dancing, music and demonstrations, campfires, canoeing, etc.
Girls in the area who are in grades 9-12 and not in Scouting should visit our Troop and get in on the fun. Contact Anne Claseman or Ann Dearing.
In April, the 26, 27 and 28th Trailblazers will go to Camp Tuckaho, Troy, This is another big fun and learning weekend with other troops.
Miss Dorothy Erlanger, who was a member of Troop 2886 through her senior year in high school (1968), has assumed leadership responsibility with Mrs. Klinefelter.
Did you order Girl Scout Cookies?
If you were missed, 2886 will have plenty on hand, as we sell from a booth and not door to door. Call us!
