[Troop139] ALL PLEASE READ & TAKE NOTE: Food plan for Annapolis trip

[J. Gordon Beattie, Jr., W2TTT]

Hi Folks!

Mr. Argueta and I put together a meal plan which is both traditional in its
approach to Scouting and a good set of fun challenges for our Scouts!  Read
on and enjoy!

:)


There are some changes to the logistics and meal planning for the Annapolis
trip this year that are designed to provide more planning and teamwork among
the members of each patrol, and more leadership, responsibility and skill
development for every Scout in the Troop.  

 

Our stops this year will be a bit different on the way down as well, with a
rest room/gas stop before we leave the end of the NJ Turnpike and a lunch
stop at the Maryland Welcome Center on US 301 to eat our bag lunches.  On
Sunday, if the weather is good, we plan to take a tour of the Academy,
though we can always go to Ft. McHenry, as either tour is free on the MLK
Holiday weekend.  That decision can be made based on weather, Mass schedule,
etc. during the weekend.
