Sawmill Concession 2022 - Friday Oct. 14 & Saturday Oct. 15 - We have the opportunity to raise some funds for the Troops by participating in the concessions for the Haunted Sawmill in Merrill. Our dates are October 14 & 15 from 5:30pm - close (likely about 10/10:30). All hands on deck are needed. You may come dressed in costume to liven up the job a bit if you want as long as it doesn't interfere with the job at hand. We are encouraging younger scouts to do the early shift but could do the later one if that works better for your schdedule. The Troop Committee decided that all the proceeds will go to the funding of the Troops. There will be no payments to Scout accounts for this event. Think of the many points to the Scout Law as you volunteer for this important Troop Event. If you have any questions, please contact one of the Scoutmasters.

"Buzz" Besadny Anadromous Fish Facility followed by Salmon Fishing followed by the USS Cobia Submarine & Wisconsin Maritime Museum on Oct. 1-2, 2022 Have you ever seen a 30 lb. salmon climb a fish ladder? Want to test your angling skills against these giant fish? Ever wondered what it would be like to spend the night on a retired World War II submarine? If you answered "yes" to any of these questions, you need to sign up for our salmon & submarine outing to Kewaunee and Manitowoc the weekend of October 1st and 2nd! Here are the details:
