Dunes Day



Come on, Kevin! Keep those crutches moving!





We're tired of looking at scenic views!!

Is someone hiding in the grass?

Grandpa Boomer & Grandma Ellen were wonderful hosts!

Jordan Valley Outing

We had bugs, a tornado watch, a crew box that weighed as much as a baby grand piano and an Advisor only a half mile short of full cardiac arrest - but Crew 1 met all challenges and had a great time on the Jordan Valley Pathway!



Copious amounts of insect repellant proved necessary!

ANOTHER EAGLE AMONG US!



Congratulations to Steven Oakley ! He just recently earned his Eagle Scout rank and Crew 1 salutes his accomplishment! Way to go, Stevie O !

A big "pat on the back" to Mr & Mrs Oakley, too. Mr. Oakley is the Eagle Advisor for Troop 1 and, we're sure, this Eagle candidate got plenty of valuable advice - and "motivation" too!

Meeting Update & Up-coming Events

Because of the small turnout at the last meeting (those Gaylord band members sure are in demand!) the next Crew meeting has been scheduled for next Wednesday, May 16 / 6:30 at the library.

Mark your calendars for these up-coming events:

Saturday, May 31 - Fundraiser Yard / Rummage Sale. Tentative location is corner of S. Otsego & Grandview ( in front of old Carter's Grocery). We are soliciting donations of marketable items from Crew families & friends. All proceeds will be shared among Crew member accounts. More details to follow - but start now on setting aside those items that you can part with and that will make for an attractive inventory!

Friday June 6 to Sunday June 8th - Jordan Valley Hike / Campout. Sign up with Nick C. !

Friday, July 25 to Saturday, July 26 - Sleeping Bear Dunes Outing. Tentative plans are for camping overnight in Dunes National Lakeshore & spending Saturday at the beach, climbing the dunes and / or just having a great time hangin' out. Crew members who are on Camp Staff at Camp Greilick will, hopefully, be able to join the rest of the Crew on Saturday for this outing.

August 19 - 21 - Backpacking trip in the Pictured Rocks National Lakshore back country. A true high adventure outing is being planned - hiking the back country & trail camping. This should be a great outdoor experience for everyone!
