Philmont 2009 -- Kickoff Presentation & Sign-Up

Attention intererested scouts:

Troop 125 has a strong history in sending crews to Philmont National Scout Ranch in Cimarron, New Mexico, and is again privileged with (2) crews for 2009.   The Philmont expedition runs August 2-13, 2009.

Attached is a presentation intended to serve as an informational overview and request to formally sign-up.  There is no meeting planned so this presentation should answer most questions.  The troop owes a financial obligation to Philmont by October 1, 2008, so participation will be locked in during September.   Scouts and adults must finalize their plans accordingly !   Several of you have already signed-up; if unsure whether you're on the list please confirm with me.

Philmont stipulates scouts must be 14 yrs old by January 1, 2009, or 13 yrs old and have finished 8th grade by the beginning of the expedition (August 2, 2009).

 Any questions beyond what is in the presenation, please do not hesitate to ask!

Scott,

We don't need to worry about the age requirements. The weight requirements are going to be hard enough to meet.
