Norm distributed the new Troop roster; the patrols have been reorganized. Upon joining, new Scouts will be placed into their own patrols rather than joining existing ones. Andy F. is the new Senior Patrol leader.

Terry and Norm will begin moving equipment into the storage room this weekend.

Calendar:

October 16-17 - Webelos campout - held for the 2nd year Webelos of Pack 188. This will be held at Camp Jeffries at BDSR. A campfire is planned; Greg I. will distribute permission slips at the next meeting. As this is the last
campout of the year, those needing to complete cooking requirements for rank advancement need to plan accordingly.

Old Business:

1. A check for camping items still needs to be given to Les B.'s troop.

2. Patrol boxes - at a standstill. The committee members still need to pick up patrol box prototype at Jim V.'s house.

New Business:

1. No new information was presented on either the High Adventure trip or Summer Camp. Hopefully information packets can be compiled and distributed by the next Court of Honor.

2. The Troop is selling Trail's End popcorn until October 23. Order forms are due October 25. Scouts will again earn 25% of the Troop's profit for their Individual Scout Accounts. Terry is chairing this activity.

The next committee meeting will be held at Linton on November 4 at 7:00 p.m.
