 On Saturday, January 25, 2014, from 8 am – 3pm, we will be taking a 6.5 mile round trip day hike to Sunset Peak at the Angeles National Forest near Baldy Village.  The trek costs only $5 for transportation.
All participants must bring their own daypack with water, trail lunch, compass,  and 10 essentials.  You will also need to bring a topo map of the area from either Tom Harrison Maps (Angeles High Country Trail Map) or USGS 7.5-min Mt. Baldy Quadrangle.
 A BSA Activity Consent Form was be filled out and given to Mr. Tsuyuki prior to the hike.  Those interested please sign up on the clipboard.
The SCOUTStrong challenge is a Presidential Active Lifestyle Award (PALA) Challenge whose goal is to add activity to your life.  This challenge is for everyone associated with the Boy Scouts of America (Scouts, Venturers, Parents, Volunteers, Council Staff, Board Members, Friends of Scouting, and BSA Alumni).
It is a Six week program that asks you simply to document your daily physical activities and make simple changes to your weekly diet. Â As active as our Troop is, this will be very easy. Â For participating, not only will you be recognized but you will receive a special patch at the next Court of Honor.
Please download the Program Overview Brochure, the Healthy Eating Goals, and the Activity Log. Â Once you have completed the 6 week program, bring you Activity Log to Mrs. Gillanders.Â
Troop 811 will be going to Winter Camp at FLSR Camp Pollock from Saturday, January 18, 2014 to Monday, January 20, 2014. Â Scouts will also be able to earn the Snow Sports Merit Badge through the program they offer at Snow Valley.
The cost of the camp will be $193 + transportation fee. Â This includes the cost of lodging for 2 nights, food, ski/snowboard equipment rental, helmet, lift ticket, and instruction. Â If you already have your equipment, the cost will, of course, be less. Â Adult fees are the same minus the cost of the helmet.
This camp is limited to only 10 scouts and 5 adults. Â You MUST sign up and PAY in order for you to reserve your spot. Â Scouts may use their scout accounts to pay for this trip.
