We are two weeks away from our big annual event—the District Klondike Derby.  Our patrol leaders have been working hard to get their patrols ready.  This takes time and effort outside of the troop meeting and I am asking everyone to give that extra effort to attend a patrol meeting to refresh and practice skills.  This is a team effort.  Incidentally, Boy’s Life Magazine will have a photographer at the Klondike Derby.  Show a lot of spirit, enthusiasm and team work skills and you just might make the cover of the magazine!  Permission slips and the new Medical Form (Parts A and C) are required for the Klondike.
