Mini Trek - August 3-5, 2012

Our annual mini-trek will be held on the weekend of August 3-5, 2012 on the Pacific Crest Trail. Scouts will hike from near Donner Summit to Barker Pass. This is a great way to start your backpacking experience if you are a new or inexperienced backpacker. Jon Traum is leading the hike and is a great backpacker and you'll learn a lot. There are some great views of the Sierra Nevada from the PCT, including Lake Tahoe, Donner Lake, Devil's Peak, Squaw Valley and much more. Don't miss this opportunity. See Jon Traum for more details. Cost for the trip is $20.00.

Golf Night - August 1, 2012

Troop 380's annual Golf Night will be held on Wednesday, August 1, 2012, at the Bradshaw Ranch Golf Center. We will all tee off with a shotgun start at 6:00 PM. All Golfers should arrive by 5:30 PM at the latest. We will have a practice night at the Troop Meeting on Monday, July 23, 2012. Bring your clubs, but if you don't have any that is okay. I have clubs for most and golf balls too. You may want to borrow a putter from a friend or relative. The fee for Scouts is just $5.00 which includes a hot dog dinner. You'll need some cash to purchase a drink in the pro shop. Sign up at the Troop Meeting. Foursomes will be assigned when you sign up. Dress for the evening is red Troop 380 T-shirts. Adults are $9.00 and welcome to play. See Mike Kuykendall for more information.
