Weekly Troop Meetings
Note, our meeting this week, August 18th, is being held outdoors. Please plan and dress appropriately!

Next Outings
Our next outing, our Caving Campout, is this weekend! We are going camping and caving at O’Bannon Woods State Park in Corydon, IN. The caving activity will be on Sunday, August 21 which means our return will be later in the afternoon on Sunday. Please plan on arriving at church Friday afternoon, 5 PM, as normal, for a 5:30 PM departure. Anticipated arrival back at HPC on Sunday is approximately 4:30 PM, but you should receive a call confirming arrival time.

PLC
The next PLC meeting with new troop leadership is scheduled for next week, August 25th. If you are part of new troop leadership, the meeting is mandatory, and you are expected to be at HPC by 5:30, or make the necessary arrangement with your new SPL, Shawn Washington (congratulations Shawn!).

NEW Reimbursement Policy (effective July 2016)
In order to close out monthly finances and be able to more accurately determine costs for future Troop trips, a Reimbursement Form, including all receipts, for Troop campouts, Back packing trips and High Adventure trips MUST be turned in by the last day of the month following the event in order to receive reimbursement from the Troop Treasurer. The reimbursement form can be found on the Troop website under Troop Documents (Troop Forms & Documents) or requested at a Troop meeting.
