The Trail to First Class weekend was a huge success. The camp site at
Chris Dobbins was fantastic. We lucked out with warm weather and
minimal rain. My thanks to all the parents that assisted with driving
and helping their scouts with food purchasing. Special thanks to the
Scout instructors who taught and assisted the younger scouts to earn
their requirements. Special thanks to Kathy Miley for not only teaching
rank advancement, but for also teaching the First Aid merit
badge. Thank you John Cenusa, John Evans, Barry Walker, Catherine
Beiswenger and Pat McDivitt, your help made the weekend run smooth and
provided the assistance needed by the Scout instructors. 6 merit badges
were completed, 7 scouts earned Firem'n Chit, 4 earned Totin' Chip.
Multiple Tenderfoot, Second and First Class requirements were earned
including First Aid, Lashings, Orienteering and Cooking. The Scouts
also did a 1.5 hour conservation project repairing trails at the camp.
Troop 70 Rocks!!
