Details: In the six-year history of Troop 72, we have NEVER gone to a Klondike Derby. We missed it last year due to a conflict with our reservations at Fred C. Andersen camp, and two years ago, it was cancelled due to lack of snow. Maybe the third time's a charm! A Klondike derby is an even where each troop or patrol pushes around a big sled that they made. The sled contains things like a First Aid kit, matches, blankets, knives, and pots. There are string-burning contests, sled races, ax skill tests, and boiling water – all outdoors, just like the real Klondike!

It will be held at Camp Phillips, about an hour's drive up Highway 53. We will be sharing the 40 bunks in the "barn" cabin with another troop – it has a wood stove, gas heat, and a kitchen, but outhouses. Two breakfasts and supper will be on our own, while the chili lunch will be served to all 200(?) of us at the Klondike Derby.

Retain the above information and return the form below with any money by 7:00 p.m. Monday, Jan. 14, 2008.

(Note this is earlier than usual! You may still be able to come after that, for an extra $5 late fee, if there's room.)
