Bell Ringing/Pizza/Bowling 12-1-12

Troop 1468 spent time ringing bells for the Salvation Army.  Some boys even brought their instruments and entertained shoppers with their lively music.  Afterwards they enjoyed bowling and pizza with a trophy award ceremony to wrap things up.




 






Holiday for Heroes 11-29-12



Troop 1468 participated in writing Christmas cards for our troops that are deployed overseas and unable to return home for Christmas.  The boys had fun doing it and I'm sure were able to put smiles on the faces of many of our service men and women with their notes.



Fall Campout Bagley Rapids 9-28-12

The fall campout for Troop 1468 this year was at Bagley Rapids in Lakewood.  "The Cathedral of the Pines was Cool". Guess who caught the only fish . . . a 6" trout, and who was that walking down the river in their pajamas?????  Good friends, good food and good fun.  Oh, and good weather:)

WI Paralyzed Veterans National Trap Shoot 9-22-12

Troop 1468 Scouts had the great opportunity to participate in the flag raising ceremony at the Wisconsin Paralyzed Veterans National Trap Shoot on 9-22-12 at the Brown County Sportsmens Club.  They also volunteered to retrieve empty shells after each shooting session.  This was a wonderful experience for the scouts.   There were  license plates from California, Georgia, Texas, Minnesota, South Dakota and many more.  Many of the wives thanked us for what we did.  Mrs. Doyle, wife of a Vietnam Vet, said she wanted to pass on how much this means to the wives who see day to day what these vets go through.  She stated how great we made her feel and she said it even means more to her husband.  Great team effort!  Way to go Troop 1468.
