The park straddles a deep gorge cut into the mountain by Sitton's Gulch Creek, and elevation differs from 800 to 1,980 feet. \n\n\n\nThe most spectacular view into the canyon is found near the picnic area parking lot; however, additional views can be found along the rim trail. Hardy visitors who hike to the bottom of the gorge (including a 600-step staircase) find two waterfalls cascading over layers of sandstone and shale into pools below. (For visitor safety, wading in pools and climbing on waterfalls is not allowed.)\n\n\n\nCost: $28 per scout; $15 per adult \n\n\n\nThe plan is to meet at the Legacy Park Amphitheater parking lot at 6 pm on Friday, **having already eaten dinner**. We'll return late Sunday morning (between 10:00 am and 11:00 am, most likely) to the same spot. \n\n\n\nA couple things to think about when packing for this weekend:\n\n \n\n* Weather - I’ve looked at a couple different reports and it’s a range of results but depending on what you read there is a chance of either snow or rain Saturday night (or both) and the temperatures will dip to either 34 or even as low as 21 degrees that night. No matter how you slice it, you’re going to want to make sure your scout has warm clothing (layers, wool sox, good jacket, etc.) and waterproof outer layers (full suit)…just in case. Also, you’ll probably want to teach them the value of packing their gear in gallon and 2 gallon size bags inside their bag they’re carrying their stuff in. Also, make sure they’ve got a good warm sleeping bag to be in and maybe pack an extra blanket to tuck in there.\n\n \n\n* Orienteering - weather permitting we are going to take another stab at trying to get this requirement for First Class taken care of. If your boys have compasses, have them bring them.\n\n\n\n* Frisbee Golf - one of the things that is fun to do at this site is play Frisbee golf. It costs $2 for each time you play. Please bring a Frisbee (bring an extra if you’ve got one for someone who might not) and pack some extra dollar bills to pay for this.\n\n \n\n* Hiking - the hiking and views here are magnificent…please make sure they bring a day pack (fanny or small backpack), water bottle/hydration pack, and good hiking shoes.\n\n\n\n[Map To Cloudland Canyon](http://maps.google.com/maps?source=ig&hl=en&q=122+Cloudland+Canyon+Park+Rd.+30738) \n\n[Weekend weather forecast for Cloudland Canyon area](http://www.weather.com/outlook/recreation/outdoors/weekend/30738)\n\n\n\nYou can pay the Scout or Adult fee for this trip via PayPal from the [Payments page of this site](catalog.php).

Let's meet at 5:45 pm, though, instead of 6:00 pm. We have a drive ahead of us, and it will be in traffic, so the sooner the better. As always, please be there promptly, and having already eaten dinner. We won't be stopping on the way, and there won't be dinner Friday evening at the camp site. \n\n\n\n* While at the campout, the campout organizers specify the buddy system at all times. Anytime a scout is headed somewhere, they’ll need to be with another of our scouts. \n\n* Reminder: No axes or hatchets allowed (won't need them anyway). \n\n* The boys will need water at all times. Jason recommends hydration packs, as opposed to carrying around bottles. For those that don't have them, he saw a pretty good one at the new Wal-Mart up 41 for only $20 (they are usually $30-50). \n\n* Please send sunscreen, insect repellent, and a hat with your Scout. \n\n* A few other things for the Scouts to think about bringing: some cash for memorabilia and drinks (small bills), a GPS device if they want to do the geocaching event, a digital camera if they want to do the camera scavenger hunt event, a compass if they want to do the orienteering event. None of these items are mandatory, just something to consider. \n\n END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT SUMMARY:Troop Meeting LOCATION:Legacy Park Amphitheater DTSTART:20100517T190000 DTEND:20100517T203000 DESCRIPTION;ENCODING=QUOTED-PRINTABLE:We will be meeting at the Amphitheater for this troop meeting, due to the clubhouse being booked.\n\n\n\nIf you are working Cub Scout Day Camp in June, there is a mandatory training session this same day and time at KUMC from 7 - 8:30 pm.

For safety reasons (so that we aren’t hiking a few miles in to the wilderness in the dark) we will be leaving bright and early Saturday morning from our usual meeting place at the amphitheater. We'll be headed north for just over an hour and entering the Cohutta Wilderness.\n\n\n\nWe will head in with all our gear on our backs for about a mile and a half into the woods until we hit the Conasauga River. We'll set up our basecamp alongside the river then continue out on a day hike that will take us another mile and a half to Bray Field (an old logging camp clearing). From there we head off further along the Panther Creek Trail until we get to Panther Creek Falls (another couple miles). Along the way we will stop for meals and also have to conduct a rope bridge river crossing (that we will construct ourselves). The river and creek we will be passing alongside are stocked with trout so we can even get some impromptu fishing in.

Each year the Scouts work in this our national park to help rid it of alien invasive plants, and each year the National Park Service is amazed with how much work is done by boy power and how many of these invasive plants are cleared out, opening up the views of the river and allowing native shrubs and wildflowers to return. The National Park Service has worked with a team of naturalists who have studied the areas cleared by the Boy Scouts and readily see the return of many native plants and wildflowers that were crowded out by the alien invasive plants, so the benefits of their efforts are real.\n\n\n\nThis year the event is scheduled for Saturday, March 5th at the Paces Mill area of the park, where Highway 41 and the Chattahoochee River intersect. The boys, both Scouts and Cubs and their leaders, have a great time, many returning from year to year. This year we’ll be joined by a service fraternity from Georgia Tech and Oglethorpe University. They heard of this Scout activity and felt that it was a worthy project to join.\n\n\n\nI need your help and assistance, particularly with getting out the word to the districts and eventually to the units, by helping distribute the attached flier. We need lots of boys, particularly Scouts since the work requires strong boys. This project benefits us all as well as improves our own national park.\n\n\n\nIf you have any questions, please don’t hesitate to contact me. Whatever you can do to further publicize this project within your districts and encourage troops and packs to join will be most appreciated, not only by the National Park Service but also by all who visit the park.\n\n\n\nIf anyone needs additional information, please have them contact me. Your involvement here with this project will be most appreciative.\n\n\n\n\n\nYours in Scouting,\n\n\n\nLynn LaBudde \n\n\n\n(92-23) \n\nDo a Good Turn Daily! \n\nBe Prepared for the Green Scouting Award!

We will have many planned events and games.\n\n\n\nThe site for the campout is about 1 1/2 hours north, in Summerville Georgia.\n\n\n\n**How We Will Camp** \n\nThis will be a trailer camping trip; backpacks will not be required for this trip. On a trailer camping trip, the boys camp in patrols. The boys within a camping patrol will tent together (two or three to a tent), and will cook as a unit. Each camping patrol assigns a Scout to serve as the cook and assistant cook for the patrol. The cook is responsible for setting the menu, doing the shopping (keeping receipts for reimbursement), and handling the actual meal preparation for the patrol during the campout. On this first camping trip for our new crossovers, we will assign two older boys to camp with the first year patrol and handle the cooking duties. There will be four meals to be covered: Saturday morning breakfast, Saturday lunch, Saturday dinner, and Sunday morning breakfast.\n\n\n\nThe cost for this trip will be $25/Scout and will be deducted from the Scout's account on ScoutManage by the Treasurer. Cooks have a budget of $16 per boy in their camping patrol to spend on the food for the meals outlined above. Cooks should keep their receipts and turn them in for a reimbursement after the trip.\n\n\n\nThe camping patrols and their counts are:\n\n\n\nRaccoon Patrol: 5 \n\nCobra Patrol: 7 \n\nEagle Patrol: 10 \n\nAdult Patrol: 7 \n\n\n\nWe leave for our camping trips on Friday evening. After meeting in the Amphitheater parking lot (next to the Legacy Park clubhouse), we load our gear into the trailer, and the Scouts into cars, leaving by 6:30 pm. Everyone should have already eaten dinner by the time they arrive at the parking lot at 6:00 pm, as we don't do dinner Friday evening. We generally return to the amphitheater parking lot by about 10:30 am or 11:00 am on Sunday morning.\n\n\n\nThe Scouts will sleep two or three to a tent, so they should decide the week before who will be tenting together, and who will be bringing the tent and ground cloth.\n\n\n\n**What to Bring**: \n\n* Sleeping bag warm enough for the weather \n\n* Tent if responsible for that piece of equipment \n\n* Sleeping pad if desired \n\n* Mess kit (plate/pan, bowl, pot, cup, spork) \n\n* Notepad/pen \n\n* Seasonal clothes (extra pants/shorts, shirt, underwear, socks, shoes) in gallon bags, inside a black trash bag \n\n* Hat \n\n* Pocket knife (except for those Scouts who have newly crossed over; their Whittlin' Chip DOES NOT carry over from Cub Scouts, and they will need to earn their Totin' Chip in the Boy Scouts before they can carry a knife.)\n\n* Rain poncho \n\n* Matches/lighter (except for those Scouts who have newly crossed over; they will need to earn their Fireman's Chit in the Boy Scouts before they can carry matches or a lighter.) \n\n* Compass \n\n* First aid kit \n\n* Water bottle \n\n* Book/entertainment \n\n* Flashlight \n\n* Twine/cord \n\n* Toilet paper \n\n* Hand gel \n\n* Camping stool if desired \n\n* Duct tape \n\n* Sun glasses\n\n\n\nSeveral (although not all) of these things are discussed in the BSA [Ten Essentials](http://www.scoutingmagazine.org/issues/0403/d-outs.html).\n\n\n\nIt is forecast to be in the upper 30's over night both nights, so please make sure your Scout has a warm enough sleeping bag (or an extra one since we're trailer camping). Clothing should be in layers, as it will be in the upper 60's during the day.\n\n\n\n**Tentative Schedule** (as planned by the Scouts of Troop 002):\n\n\n\nSaturday\n\n\n\n* 7:00 - Patrol cooks wake up to make breakfast \n\n* 7:30 - Everyone wake-up \n\n* 8:00 - Breakfast is served \n\n* 8:45 - Finish breakfast \n\n* 9:00 - Flags/announcements \n\n* 9:15-10:00 - Skillmasters go to set up stations/break \n\n* 10:15-10:45 - Start station 1 \n\n* 10:50-11:20 - Start station 2 \n\n* 11:25-12:00 - Lunch \n\n* 12:10-12:40 - Start station 3 \n\n* 12:45-1:15 - Start station 4\n\n* 1:20-1:50 - Start station 5\n\n* 1:55-2:40 - Station break-down/break \n\n* 2:45-3:45 - Game \n\n* 3:50-5:00 - Break \n\n* 5:05 - Start making dinner \n\n* 5:40 - Dinner \n\n* 6:30 - Campfire \n\n* 10:30 - Lights out END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT SUMMARY:Troop Meeting LOCATION:TBA DTSTART:20110314T190000 DTEND:20110314T203000 DESCRIPTION;ENCODING=QUOTED-PRINTABLE:The location will be announced; it will not be in the clubhouse due to a special election scheduled for the next day.\n\n\n\nTroop meetings will begin at 7:00 pm sharp.

All gear brought by each participant must fit in a 2 pound coffee can. \n\n\n\nThe specific rules follow: \n\n\n\n1. Your Scout's coffee can should be within 2 ounces of 2 pounds. It can be metal or plastic, and no modifications may be made to the can to enable it to hold more volume or items. The items must be stored IN the can, and should not prevent the can's original top from being closed properly. Nothing can stick out of the can (either through the top, sides, or bottom). Basically, this is a long-winded way to say that the things brought must fit INSIDE the can. \n\n2. We will be wearing class A uniform when we leave on Saturday morning. Your Scout may also bring items that fit COMPLETELY INSIDE the pockets on the standard class A uniform (including the pants). Nothing (with exceptions to follow) can stick out of the pockets or prevent them from being closed. Nothing can be hung from the belt or any other place. Your Scout may wear a separate shirt under his class A shirt, and/or a windbreaker over his class A, but those items of clothing may not carry any gear in any pockets, if they have them. \n\n3. Exceptions to the rule above: your Scout should have a personal (small) first aid kit, which may hang from a carabiner or his belt, and your Scout MUST have a minimum 16 oz. water bottle that may hang from a carabiner on his belt. \n\n4. Other than what's outlined in the above rules, NOTHING else will be brought by the Scout. No tents, sleeping bags, extra clothes, or food, unless they fit into the coffee can or class A uniform pockets.\n\n\n\nUnlike other camping trips, this will be a one night (Saturday) trip. The boys will need food to eat for lunch and dinner on Saturday, and breakfast on Sunday. The Troop will make sure there is water available for re-filling water bottles, and will bring a large first aid kit.\n\n\n\nThe location for the campout is about five miles east of the town of White, GA (about 30 miles from Legacy Park). We'll probably park at the Ranger Station ("Check Station") and hike in a mile from there.\n\n\n\nWe will be meeting Saturday morning in the Amphitheater parking lot at 7:30 am. Please make sure your Scout has his gear packed in coffee can and pockets, is wearing his class A uniform, and has already eaten breakfast. We should be able to get on the road by 7:45 am, or so. We expect to return to the Amphitheater parking lot by 10:00 am on Sunday morning.\n\n\n\nWeather for Saturday is forecast as sunny, high of 81, and a low of 59 over Saturday night/Sunday morning. There is no rain in the forecast.\n\n\n\nOn Saturday during the campout, Jason Cook will be working with the boys on the Wilderness Survival merit badge, for those who open the blue card. If your Scout wants to work on that merit badge on this trip, and didn't open the blue card with Mr. Shambaugh on Monday evening, please have HIM call (770-856-0757) or email (scoutmaster@troop002.org) Mr. Shambaugh to open it before Friday.\n\n\n\nOther than the merit badge clinic activities, the bulk of the day on Saturday will be available to the Scouts to work out their shelter for the evening, fish if they want to, and generally enjoy the campout.\n\n\n\nCost is TBD.

Due to low participation, we are canceling this trip, and will reschedule for later in the summer.\n\n\n\nThis will be a backpacking and hiking trip. HELP US FIND PANTHER FALLS!\n\n\n\nThe Cohutta Wilderness is absolutely gorgeous, has plenty of camping opportunities, and lots of creeks and streams to explore. More importantly, it offers a hike to Panther Falls, which is supposed to be a beautiful set of waterfalls. Troop 002 has taken to calling them "Phantom Falls", though, as we had a little trouble finding them on our last trip here in February. :)\n\n\n\nSo, our June camping trip will now be an expedition to find Panther Falls in the beautiful Cohutta Wilderness.\n\n\n\nWe will head in with all our gear on our backs for about a mile and a half into the woods until we hit the Conasauga River. We'll set up our basecamp alongside the river then continue out another mile and a half to Bray Field (an old logging camp clearing). From there we head off further along the Panther Creek Trail until we get to Panther Creek Falls (another couple miles). \n\n\n\nThe river and creek we will be passing alongside are stocked with trout so we can even get some impromptu fishing in. We'll have a bonfire Saturday evening. Waking up the next morning, we'll break camp, hike out, and should be home by about 11am or so.\n\n\n\nThis whole experience will be completely "off the grid." We will be packing in our own water and using the river to resupply using filtration systems and iodine tablets, etc. Everything will be on our backs.\n\n\n\nThe Scouts will sleep two or three to a tent, so they should decide the week before who will be tenting together, and who will be bringing the tent and ground cloth.\n\n\n\n**What to Bring**:\n\n\n\n* Sleeping bag warm enough for the weather \n\n* Tent if responsible for that piece of equipment \n\n* Sleeping pad if desired \n\n* Mess kit (plate/pan, bowl, pot, cup, spork) \n\n* Notepad/pen \n\n* Seasonal clothes (extra pants/shorts, shirt, underwear, socks, shoes) in gallon bags, inside a black trash bag \n\n* Hat \n\n* Pocket knife (except for those Scouts who have newly crossed over; their Whittlin' Chip DOES NOT carry over from Cub Scouts, and they will need to earn their Totin' Chip in the Boy Scouts before they can carry a knife.)\n\n* Rain poncho \n\n* Matches/lighter (except for those Scouts who have newly crossed over; they will need to earn their Fireman's Chit in the Boy Scouts before they can carry matches or a lighter.) \n\n* Compass \n\n* First aid kit \n\n* Water bottle \n\n* Book/entertainment \n\n* Flashlight \n\n* Twine/cord \n\n* Toilet paper \n\n* Hand gel \n\n* Camping stool if desired \n\n* Duct tape \n\n* Sun glasses\n\n\n\nSeveral (although not all) of these things are discussed in the BSA [Ten Essentials](http://www.scoutingmagazine.org/issues/0403/d-outs.html).\n\n\n\nThis is a trip you won't want to miss!!!

We would like to limit the participants to 30 scouts for our first effort.\n\n\n\nWe would like to have a registration cutoff on June 15 so we can effectively group the boys into patrols by age, experience and organize the necessary materials. OUR PROGRAM DATE IS SATURDAY JUNE 25. \n\n\n\nCheck-in will start about 8:30 Saturday morning. We should be through by about 4 o'clock with time to explore the museum exhibits. We highly suggest you have the boys pack a lunch for their one hour lunch break, as there are not a lot of lunch possibilities available close in to downtown Kennesaw. We are charging $10 per scout and $5 per adult leader. This fee covers use, admission to the Museum, and materials. In order to insure "two deep leadership" we ask that each group provides one adult "guide" and a familiar face.\n\n\n\nBoys should show up in uniform, with a signed MB Card, with the RR Merit badge book, pencil & paper ready to learn. It would be helpful if the boys would pre-read the MB Pamphlet so our staff can cover and answer areas of particular interest (online or offline).

It is geared for the the new scouts but everyone is invited to come along. We will be hiking the Homestead Trail at Redtop Mountain which is very similar in terrain to the 5 mile Mountain Man hike at Woodruff.\n\n\n\nThe plan is to leave Legacy Park at 9:00 sharp and we should be back around noon. There is a 5 dollar parking fee to park at Red Top if you don’t have an annual pass so it would be good to carpool if possible. I already have a parking pass and can take 3 more people in my van. You could also ask around and see if any friend or family has a parking pass that you could use to save the 5 dollars. This is not a requirement for the scouts, it is just an opportunity to see how the boys handle a little hike.\n\n\n\nPlease respond back if you plan on hiking Saturday.

Monday night we should arrive any time before the festivities end.\n\n\n\nWe will have a table, a five gallon jug of ice water, and a fire bowl available for the campers' use each night. Campers should bring a water bottle, fixings for hot dogs (or something reasonably easy to prepare over a fire bowl), a flashlight, sleeping gear (a tent, sleeping bag, hammock, etc.), and perhaps a folding chair. On Sunday and Monday night, there will be a covered stage on the Town Greene that you are free to sleep on if you wish.\n\n\n\nIn the morning, please make sure that at least a few people remain on site until the HOA set up crew (or breakdown crew on Tuesday morning) arrives for the day.

Units are welcome to camp Friday night, but activities will actually begin Saturday morning at 10 am. If the troop decides to camp either Friday or Saturday night (or both) they need to request a tent site through Crew 540. Even though there is no cost we still want troops to register youth and adult numbers so we can plan accordingly. \n\n \n\nWe will talk about the high adventure bases at closing ceremonies and the block party.

Because our time is tight Friday evening, it's VERY important that everyone arrive on time, having eaten, and ready to head out.\n\n\n\nBecause we will be driving for so long, it will be acceptable for each Scout to bring ONE electronic device to occupy him while we're in the car. This should be a phone, a Nintendo DS, or some other small, battery powered device. When we arrive at our destination, the device will remain locked in the car.\n\n\n\nWe will then travel to Providence Canyon State Park in time to arrive before they close the gate at 10 pm. The trip time shows to be 3 hours and 18 minutes (186 miles). The Troop has reserved a pioneer site there.\n\n\n\nIn the morning, we will have a quick breakfast and hit the road around 7-7:30. The trip to Pensacola shows to be 4 hours and 22 minutes (245 miles). We cross into Central Time zone so we will gain an hour going to Pensacola. If we leave at 7:30, we should get there around 11 am.\n\n\n\nScouts should be in class A uniform while we're at the museum and the air show. The planes start flying around noon and the Blue Angels usually start their show around 2 pm. We will eat lunch at the air show with cash that the Scouts bring with them. There should be plenty of time for the scouts to roam the airfield during that time. Then we will head over to the Naval Museum and will probably spend about 1 or 2 hours there.\n\n\n\nWe will then head north to Florala State Park, which is on the border of Florida and Alabama. We have a primitive campsite for Saturday night. The travel time from Pensacola to Florala is 1 hour and 47 minutes (87 miles). \n\n\n\nSaturday night, we will share a pot of chili, and then cook omelets in a bag on Sunday morning. The trip back from Florala to Legacy Park is 5 hours and 9 minutes (289 miles). We will stop for a brief fast food lunch on the way home.\n\n\n\nThe cooks for the cooking patrols are ONLY responsible for one cold breakfast for the boys in their patrol on Saturday morning. The budget, as usual, is $4/meal/boy, so for this trip, the cooks' budget is $4 for each boy. The remaining meals are covered, either by the Troop or with spending money each boy brings.\n\n\n\nEach Scout should bring the following:\n\n\n\n1. Cash for lunch on Saturday at the air show, and for fast food lunch on Sunday on the way home. Between $15 and $20 total should be sufficient. \n\n2. Sunblock and a hat. \n\n3. Clothes and sleeping bag appropriate for the weather. The forecast for Pensacola currently is a low of around 42 Friday night, a high of 70 on Saturday, and a low of 54 on Saturday night.\n\n4. A water bottle. \n\n5. There may be an opportunity for souvenirs at either the air show or the aviation museum, so money for that purpose is also a possibility. No more than $25, I would guess.\n\n\n\nProvidence State Park \n\n8930 Canyon Road \n\nLumpkin, GA 31815\n\n\n\nPensacola NAS \n\n190 Radford Blvd \n\nPensacola, FL 32508\n\n\n\nFlorala State Park \n\n439 Victoria Lane \n\nFlorala, AL 36442 END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT SUMMARY:Medieval Times Scout Appreciation Day LOCATION: DTSTART:20111112T110000 DTEND;VALUE=DATE:20111112 DESCRIPTION;ENCODING=QUOTED-PRINTABLE:The cost for Scouts and Leaders in uniform is $24.95.\n\n\n\nMore information is here: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT SUMMARY:Troop Meeting LOCATION:Legacy Park Clubhouse DTSTART:20111114T190000 DTEND:20111114T203000 DESCRIPTION;ENCODING=QUOTED-PRINTABLE:Troop meetings will begin at 7:00 pm sharp.

Carters Lake is near Fort Mountain in northern Georgia.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThe cost for this trip will be $40 per Scout.

Come join us for a great, incredibly scenic trip. More information to follow.\n\n\n\nThere is a guided geology tour of the canyon led by a professor on Saturday. That morning, we will meet at the main office of the park at 10:30 to head out at 11:00 down into the canyon for the tour, which should be finished around 1:00 or 2:00 pm.\n\n \n\nThere is a 3 mile loop we can hike on our own that will get us down onto the canyon floor as well.\n\n\n\nBecause this will be a patrol cooking trip, we will cut off registration the Monday prior to the trip to allow for food planning and shopping. Cancellations after that time will unfortunately still be charged to the Scout account since costs will have been incurred.\n\n\n\nWe leave Kennesaw at 6:00 pm on Friday. Because our time is tight Friday evening, it's VERY important that everyone arrive on time, having eaten, and ready to head out as soon as possible. Please remember that we travel in class A uniform, and there should NOT be any electronic devices used in the cars or at the campsite.\n\n\n\nWe will travel to Providence Canyon State Park in time to arrive by about 10 pm. The trip time shows to be 3 hours and 18 minutes (186 miles). The Troop has reserved a pioneer site there.\n\n\n\nPlease pack for the weather, with a couple of layers. Each Scout must bring two (2) water bottles, both of which should already be filled with water when they arrive at the parking lot to load up. Please make sure also that your Scout has comfortable hiking or walking shoes (closed-toe only) for Saturday.\n\n\n\nScouts may also want to contact each other to make plans for sharing tents. As mentioned above, there will be patrol cooks, so Scouts are not responsible for bringing their own meals.

Help them learn the basics of Boy Scouting and how much fun we have! This camping trip will be focused on training and requirements completion for newly crossed Boy Scouts. We will have many planned events and games.\n\n\n\nAs usual, please arrive on Friday to the LP Ampitheater parking lot in Class A uniform, having eaten dinner, with your gear packed.\n\n\n\nWe'll return Sunday morning. most likely between 9:30 and 10:00 am.\n\n\n\n**The location will be Windy Waters.** \n\n**Directions:** Take I-75 N to exit 290 for GA-20 E. Go 0.4 mi. and then slight right onto GA-20 E/Canton Hwy. Immediately turn right onto GA-20 Spur/Co Rd 294N. Continue to follow Co Rd 294N for 1.4 mi. Continue onto McKaskey Creek Rd SE. The entrance road to Camp Windy Waters is on the left just before the road ends. There is a large sign facing McKaskey Creek Road by the gate to the camp.\n\n\n\n\n\n**How We Will Camp** \n\nThis will be a trailer camping trip; backpacks will not be required for this trip. On a trailer camping trip, the boys camp in patrols. The boys within a camping patrol will tent together (two or three to a tent), and will cook as a unit. Each camping patrol assigns a Scout to serve as the cook and assistant cook for the patrol. The cook is responsible for setting the menu, doing the shopping (keeping receipts for reimbursement), and handling the actual meal preparation for the patrol during the campout. On this first camping trip for our new crossovers, we will assign two older boys to camp with the first year patrol and handle the cooking duties. There will be four meals to be covered: Saturday morning breakfast, Saturday lunch, Saturday dinner, and Sunday morning breakfast.\n\n\n\nThe cost for this trip will be $25/Scout and will be deducted from the Scout's account on ScoutManage by the Treasurer. Cooks have a budget of $16 per boy in their camping patrol to spend on the food for the meals outlined above. Cooks should keep their receipts and turn them in for a reimbursement after the trip.\n\n\n\nThe camping patrols and their counts are:\n\n\n\n* Patrol 1, with Jack D. cooking, and a total of 7 Scouts\n\n* Patrol 2, with Parker W. cooking, and a total of 7 Scouts\n\n* Patrol 3, with Will P. cooking, and a total of 8 Scouts\n\n\n\nThe grocery budget for each cook is $16/Scout, (or $4 per Scout per meal). The cooks will be responsible for breakfast, lunch, and dinner on Saturday, and a cold breakfast on Sunday.\n\n\n\nWe leave for our camping trips on Friday evening. After meeting in the Amphitheater parking lot (next to the Legacy Park clubhouse), we load our gear into the trailer, and the Scouts into cars, leaving by 6:30 pm. Everyone should have already eaten dinner by the time they arrive at the parking lot at 6:00 pm, as we don't do dinner Friday evening. We generally return to the amphitheater parking lot by about 10:30 am or 11:00 am on Sunday morning.\n\n\n\nThe Scouts will sleep two or three to a tent, so they should decide the week before who will be tenting together, and who will be bringing the tent and ground cloth.\n\n\n\n**What to Bring**:\n\n\n\n* Sleeping bag warm enough for the weather \n\n* Tent if responsible for that piece of equipment \n\n* Sleeping pad if desired \n\n* Mess kit (plate/pan, bowl, pot, cup, spork) \n\n* Notepad/pen \n\n* Seasonal clothes (extra pants/shorts, shirt, underwear, socks, shoes) in gallon bags, inside a black trash bag \n\n* Hat \n\n* Pocket knife (except for those Scouts who have newly crossed over; their Whittlin' Chip DOES NOT carry over from Cub Scouts, and they will need to earn their Totin' Chip in the Boy Scouts before they can carry a knife.)\n\n* Rain poncho \n\n* Matches/lighter (except for those Scouts who have newly crossed over; they will need to earn their Fireman's Chit in the Boy Scouts before they can carry matches or a lighter.) \n\n* Compass \n\n* First aid kit \n\n* Water bottle \n\n* Book/entertainment \n\n* Flashlight \n\n* Twine/cord \n\n* Toilet paper \n\n* Hand gel \n\n* Camping stool if desired \n\n* Duct tape \n\n* Sun glasses\n\n\n\nSeveral (although not all) of these things are discussed in the BSA [Ten Essentials](http://www.scoutingmagazine.org/issues/0403/d-outs.html).\n\n\n\nThe weather forecast calls for a low of about 40 overnight both nights, so please make sure your Scout has an appropriate sleeping bag. Clothing should be in light layers, as it will be in the upper 60's during the day. There is a chance of rain on both Friday and Saturday, so please have your Scout pack rain gear or a rain poncho, a hat, and two garbage bags.\n\n\n\n**Tentative Schedule** (as planned by the Scouts of Troop 002):\n\n\n\nSaturday\n\n\n\n* 7:00 - Patrol cooks wake up to make breakfast \n\n* 7:30 - Everyone wake-up \n\n* 8:00 - Breakfast is served \n\n* 8:45 - Finish breakfast \n\n* 9:00 - Flags/announcements \n\n* 9:15-10:00 - Skillmasters go to set up stations/break \n\n* 10:15-10:45 - Start station 1 \n\n* 10:50-11:20 - Start station 2 \n\n* 11:25-12:00 - Lunch \n\n* 12:10-12:40 - Start station 3 \n\n* 12:45-1:15 - Start station 4\n\n* 1:20-1:50 - Start station 5\n\n* 1:55-2:40 - Station break-down/break \n\n* 2:45-3:45 - Game \n\n* 3:50-5:00 - Break \n\n* 5:05 - Start making dinner \n\n* 5:40 - Dinner \n\n* 6:30 - Campfire \n\n* 10:30 - Lights out END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT SUMMARY:Fundraiser: Pinestraw Orders Due LOCATION: DTSTART;VALUE=DATE:20120312 DTEND;VALUE=DATE:20120312 DESCRIPTION;ENCODING=QUOTED-PRINTABLE:All orders for pine straw sales must be turned in by this date.

Go out the back Kentmere gate, hang a left, and the entrance to the lot is about 200 yards down on the right. I’ll try to have a sign out on the road indicating where we are and to turn in. I’d like everyone to meet there at 7:45am this Saturday morning. I'd like all boys (plus a parent) there who have participated in this fundraiser (even if you only sold one bale). (My cell is 770-633-2747). Depending on the final tally of our order, there might not be enough pinestraw at this location and a couple scouts might end up having to get their order from another location on 41. We’ll figure that out on site.\n\n\n\n* Each family will need to bring a pair of work gloves per scout and parent and one or two leaf rakes to assist with the clean-up process. ("Leave No Trace") You'll also want to bring some water to drink (2 bottles each?). If you have a dust mask or want to bring a bandana, it can get a little dusty in the trailer (we learned that last year), you might want to bring that as well.\n\n\n\n* Plan on working for about 2-3 or so hours to get the trailer unloaded and divided into each scout's stack.\n\n\n\n* From there, each family is responsible for getting their TOTAL order back to their house, from where you will then deliver your individual orders to each of their customers on your own timeline. Make whatever plans you need to now in order to make that possible (i.e., how are you transporting it).\n\n\n\n* My goal is for us to have the lot area cleared of all pinestraw by 1pm if possible\n\n\n\n* Class B t-shirt is fine since we are doing physical labor. If you don’t yet have a Troop 002 Class B (new scouts), any scouting shirt is fine.\n\n\n\n* I would like one or two GAS powered leaf blowers to assist in cleaning the area on Saturday once done. Please respond to this to let me know if you can bring one\n\n\n\nIf you have any questions about this, do not hesitate to contact me at jcook@bradley-morris.com or cell: 770-633-2747.\n\n\n\n\n\n END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT SUMMARY:PLC: Committee Meeting and PLC Meeting LOCATION:Legacy Park Clubhouse DTSTART:20120318T163000 DTEND:20120318T180000 DESCRIPTION;ENCODING=QUOTED-PRINTABLE:Patrol Leader's Council and the Adult Committee Meeting will take place at the same time at the LP Clubhouse. \n\n\n\nSenior Patrol Leader, Assistant SPL, Patrol Leaders and APLs, and the Scribe should all attend to participate in the planning of the upcoming troop meetings.

Sand Rock, Little Rock City, Cherokee Rock Village) is located in northeastern Alabama, near the southern end of 80 mile long Lookout Mountain, just north of the town of Leesburg. (The next largest town is Centre, or Gadsen). The rock formations sit atop Shinbone ridge overlooking the town of Leesburg and man-made Lake Weiss. Sandrock is about 20 miles northeast of Gadsen, Alabama, 1.5 hours west of Atlanta, Georgia, and about an hour southwest of Chattanooga, Tennessee.\n\n\n\nThe rock formations are visible from the parking area requiring only a short walk to reach the closest. There are additional points of access along the road which parallels the climbing area near its terminus. A low rock wall has been constructed at the border of the parking area to discourage direct ATV access into the climbing areas.\n\n\n\nThe rock formations are typically free standing with routes on all sides. Almost all of them offer easy access to the top via scrambling or easy climbs to rig top ropes. Some of the more popular have permanent anchors. Trails wind around and through the many formations, some pass through small caves and slots.

All gear brought by each participant must fit in a 2 pound coffee can. \n\n\n\nThe specific rules follow: \n\n\n\n1. Your Scout's coffee can should be within 2 ounces of 2 pounds. It can be metal or plastic, and no modifications may be made to the can to enable it to hold more volume or items. The items must be stored IN the can, and should not prevent the can's original top from being closed properly. Nothing can stick out of the can (either through the top, sides, or bottom). Basically, this is a long-winded way to say that the things brought must fit INSIDE the can. \n\n2. We will be wearing class A uniform when we leave on Saturday morning. Your Scout may also bring items that fit COMPLETELY INSIDE the pockets on the standard class A uniform (including the pants). Nothing (with exceptions to follow) can stick out of the pockets or prevent them from being closed. Nothing can be hung from the belt or any other place. Your Scout may wear a separate shirt under his class A shirt, and/or a windbreaker over his class A, but those items of clothing may not carry any gear in any pockets, if they have them. \n\n3. Exceptions to the rule above: your Scout should have a personal (small) first aid kit, which may hang from a carabiner or his belt, and your Scout MUST have a minimum 16 oz. water bottle that may hang from a carabiner on his belt. \n\n4. Other than what's outlined in the above rules, NOTHING else will be brought by the Scout. No tents, sleeping bags, extra clothes, or food, unless they fit into the coffee can or class A uniform pockets.\n\n\n\nUnlike other camping trips, this will be a one night (Saturday) trip. The boys will need food to eat for lunch and dinner on Saturday, and breakfast on Sunday. The Troop will make sure there is water available for re-filling water bottles, and will bring a large first aid kit.\n\n\n\nWe will be meeting Saturday morning in the Amphitheater parking lot at 7:30 am. Please make sure your Scout has his gear packed in coffee can and pockets, is wearing his class A uniform, and has already eaten breakfast. We should be able to get on the road by 7:45 am, or so. We expect to return to the Amphitheater parking lot by 10:00 am on Sunday morning.\n\n\n\nOn Saturday during the campout, Jason Cook will be working with the boys on the Wilderness Survival merit badge, for those who open the blue card. If your Scout wants to work on that merit badge on this trip, and didn't open the blue card with Mr. Shambaugh on Monday evening, please have HIM call (770-856-0757) or email (scoutmaster@troop002.org) Mr. Shambaugh to open it before leaving.\n\n\n\nOther than the merit badge clinic activities, the bulk of the day on Saturday will be available to the Scouts to work out their shelter for the evening, fish if they want to, and generally enjoy the campout.\n\n\n\nCost is TBD.
