Attention Rangers!
As you know, or should know (assuming you are checking the calendar in the website), our day trip to McKittrick Canyon is coming up. Here is a list of things I prefer you to bring.
- at least 1 gallon of water to hydrate (you can bring gatorade as well if you prefer)
- hiking shoes is recommended – if not any shoes that provides traction. NO converse or crocks!!!
- Sun screen if you want
- wear layers of clothing with a sweater
Interior Painting Honor
As I have said on our last Pathfinder meeting, that the Youth Room is being renovated and we are offering the Interior Painting honor for those of you that are interested. It is not mandatory, but it is an easy way to earn another honor for the year. For those of you who are new comers to Pathfinders, should take advantage of this opportunity. We’ll have a blast and you’ll have one more honor to brag about.
It is this Sunday, October 30th from 8am -12 noon. There will be an option that we will stay longer than the schedule mentioned. If you want to stay, and are willing to help out longer, we can order pizza and have lunch at the fellowship hall and resume painting afterwards. We can stay maybe until 3 pm or so depending on the energy we have left.
If you have any questions, please call 915-345-6926 or 915-588-6822
thank you belly musch
Youth Rally Update October 10, 2011
The cost for the trip.
Kids are $25 – includes meal and tshirt
Adults are $70 – includes gas, meal, and lodging.
From the past, we have been leaving at around 12pm and missed the Friday night worship. This year, we are doing something different so that we can get the entire benefit of the youth rally. Parents, if we could have the kids at church by 8 am so that we can leave by 8:30 am.
We are trying to get a letter from the Conference that will excuse the kids from school that Friday, October 21, 2011.
If there are any questions or concerns, please call 915-345-6926 or 915-227-9172.
Youth Rally
For those of you who are going to the youth rally, please bring your $20 that we asked you to bring tomorrow at the Pathfinder meeting. Either give it to Mr. Donovan or Mr. Paolo. Again, this is a non-refundable deposit. Which means, that if you decide the last minute that you will not go, you will not get your $20 back. Therefore, before paying us, talk to you parents about it, look over your calendars, to make sure that there will be no schedule confliction, or if possible, make some scheduling changes to accomodate the Youth Rally.
Depending on the updated Youth funds, we will see how much we have to revise the $70 initial cost of the trip. Some of you are wanting to go to the youth rally, but because of the cost, are still debating on whether to go or not.
We don’t know what the event this year will be. 2009 Youth Rally was a gym night. On 2010, it was a banquet. So, when we receive the information, we will let you guys know, and/or post it here on the website.
Call either 915-345-6926 or 915-227-9172 for more information or updates. Thanks.
No Pathfinder Sabbath this weekend, but….
The Pathfinder Sabbath originally scheduled for this weekend has been postponed to an undetermined date.
However…
We have been asked to be in charge of potluck this weekend at Central. The theme is haystacks, partly because we ended up with so much left over from the camping trip. This is what we are asking for:
- Chartreuse Flames – Beans, Tomatoes
- Cobalt Flames – Chips, Cheese
- Jane – Dessert
- Crimson Flames – Salsa, Olives
- Non-Counseling Staff – Drink and any other toppings you want to see
Any questions? Talk to your counselor.
