Details: We're heading north for this year's bike trip! We'll haul camping/cooking gear from CVBC to Brunet in the troop trailer, so the burden will be light. The ranger is allowing us to do a service project Sunday morning instead of paying for campsites. We'll be bicycling almost entirely on paved bike trails, on the Old Able Trail. The trail is paved and flat, but it is about 26 miles each day, so boys should bring a bike in good working order, and should try to do a little conditioning before the trip. Also, helmets are mandatory. We'll eat lunch at the Cenex in Jim Falls both days; hopefully a parent can meet us there with coolers of patrol food. MANDATORY UNIFORM both days: The new red Troop Activity Shirt. (Bring your Class A's, too, for flag ceremonies.)

Retain the above information and return the form below with any money by 7:00 p.m. Monday, Aug. 13, 2012. (If you can't make it to that meeting, MAIL IT IN to 1900 Eagle Street, Chippewa Falls, WI 54729 so that it arrives by that day.) Patrols will be buying food at the meeting that night.
