Troop 86's annual cabin camping event will take place at Camp NoBeBoSco February 3-5. Events will include advancement opportunities, good cooking, and fun. Permission slips and $10 due to Mr. Saint Jacques and $15 due to your patrol leader for food. Sign up now, but no later than January 25th.

The Troop is in the process of rechartering with the Northern New Jersey Council. To do so, each adult and scout should bring in $20 (checks made out to Troop 86) by no later than January 25th. If anyone wants Boy's Life, please add $12. If you have any questions, please ask Mr. Saint Jacques. Adults: if you are already registered with another unit and paid the $20 registration there, just let me know and I can add you on as a "multiple." Note: As far as training, all adult leaders must have at least up-to-date Youth Protection before we can register you. You cannot register if you do not.

All members of Troop 86 are asked to attend the final Eagle Court of Honor rehearsal on Friday, January 27th at 7:00 PM at the United Methodist Church on Main Street. Please be there in uniform.

If you are interested in joining, please call Al Saint Jacques at (973) 838-4042.
