From Route 35 in Middletown
Take Kings Highway east to Monmouth
Avenue. Monmouth
Avenue becomes Hartshorne Road. At Washington Avenue make a right to stay on Hartshorne Road. In about 1 mile make a left (after Van Tat Road)
onto
entrance for Group Cabin. Note that when I was last there, there is a
sign that says Park Administration only. You can safely ignore that
sign.
On February 21st we are meeting at 8:30 AM at Quail Hill Scout reservation for the annual Battleground District Klondike derby. Wear appropriate clothing! Sneakers are not allowed.
On March 20th - 22nd we are camping in the group cabin at Hartshorne Woods.
This Saturday their MAY be a chance to do a service project. The AT&T Pioneers are building a handicapped ramp for the Blind Citizens Association in Leonardo. They can't handle the entire troop, but if some of us want to help this Saturday for a few hours starting sometime in the morning let me know ASAP. They want to know how many people before committing to having work for us to do.
The second event is on December 6th. We are having a day trip to the Howell Living History Farm in Titusville, NJ. See Howell Farm for directions. We'll be spending the day at the farm and we will be making lunch there.
See you at the next meeting on December 2nd. (no meeting either the 16th or the 25th).
We will be having an open house on Tuesday September 22nd. Invite your friends and classmates! A flyer suitable for printing can be found here: TroopOpenHouse.doc.
UPDATE: Unfortunately due to Hannah set to hit us on Friday evening we have canceled this trip. I'm talking to the National Park Service about possibly scheduling for another weekend this month.
We are camping at Sandy Hook on September 5-7. I'll be getting there around 7:30. Have dinner before you arrive, or bring something with you.
We are camping in the group camping area. Its 1.5 miles past the Ranger Station, right across from the Horseshoe Cove salt marsh.
