We're looking at having Mr. Laskowski
teach the following topics:
 | What to do when you get lost |
 | Survival Kits (make one before
camp - he'll review it). |
 | Signage |
 | Blind Drum stalk (sneak up on the
instructor as he beats his drum - if he hears you and points to
you, you're out) |

These are very interesting and well-run
sessions. We've had Mr. Laskowski contribute to our program
for a number of years.

Congratulations to all who attended
the Jan 27, CPR Training at the
Brecksville Rec Center. It's not easy stuff, is it?
For those who needed the CPR
requirements for Swimming and/or First Aid Merit Badge,
the "practical" test where you demonstrated your
technique is more important than the written test results needed
for American Red Cross certification.
Many thanks to Dee and Shawna for
taking the time and putting forth the effort for our benefit.

| Jan
27, 2007 |
Jan 27, CPR Training at the
Brecksville Rec Center at 8:30 am - 12:30 (maybe a little later
than 12:30 because we're really full).
The cost is $15 for what is normally a $45 course for American
Red Cross Adult CPR certification. The dummies and instructors
are donated but the booklets, quick-reference reminder cards,
and certificates add up to $15. Bring cash or check made out to
"Troop 652".
We've got more than 20 people signed
up so it will be pretty busy. All of the First Aid MB
scouts are in, some Webelos, and some others.
|
| Jan
25, 2007 |
The January 25th meeting will
be outdoors at Oak Grove Picnic Area in the Brecksville
Reservation. We'll play with the Klondike Sled and ropes
and practice the Webelos Bridging Ceremony. Based on past
experience, all we have to do is schedule the "Snow
Fort" event so that we can enjoy 60 degree weather.
Nah!

Honor.

scouts be recognized for their accomplishments.

Troop 652 has a
Uniform Exchange program for our members. We keep uniform
shirts that have been outgrown, green pants, and hiking boots in our
closet. We're low now because we had some mildew in the closet
in '06 but we recognize that the younger scouts grow through sizes
very quickly and uniform shirts and boots can be a big
expense.
For a wider net, Troop 526 in North
Royalton is starting a "Uniform Exchange" program for all
scout units in the area. They accept gently worn scout items
and distribute items received "as is" to local Scouts at
no cost. Visit the Troop web site at www.troop526.org
and select "Uniform Exchange" to learn more about this
program. The available items list is updated as donations are made,
so check back often! |

Philmont Fund Raisers - The cost is
preventing a few scouts who want to go so we're trying to
provide as many opportunities as we can for the scouts to join
the trek. The Pancake Breakfast on 12/31, the Max &
Erma's 20% of the check deal on Jan. 9th, and others as we
can come up with them. Car washes in the spring of course.
For now, we need some help passing out letters to local
restaurants and shops asking for their help. The letter
simply asks for a fundraising opportunity like the one that Max
& Erma's has. All Philmont crew members should print off two copies of the
letter (in color if possible) and give them to the managers of
your favorite restaurants. (Click
Here for the letter) Explain to them what we are doing
and why we need their help. We already have some
restaurants spoken for so please don't take anymore to
Pickleworks, Simons, the Boneyard, Ruby Tuesday's, Chipotle, or
Mavis Winkles. Please let me know which stores you have
taken your letters to so we may keep track of our success. This
is also a reminder to those who already have the letters to
please get them to the stores ASAP. |

Crew is afoot! Come enjoy a fine lunch or dinner with
us.
Max & Erma's on Tiedeman at 480 will donate 20% of the
dinner bills to help lower the cost of the trip. But
there's a special "coupon" diners will need to make
their meals count for the fundraiser.
Print the coupon (Click
Here) and pass it out to friends and family. Or
save it and email it to them. |

There's a new link on the "Links"
page for the Blue Ridge Mountains Council site describing their
High Adventure camps. The High Knoll adventure was
recommended for a Philmont-like weeklong hiking adventure with a
little bit of summer camp-like skill building. The water
camps look good too.
