Thank you for taking time to visit our Crew's website.  Our Crew and Boy Scout Troop is located in Lee's Summit, Missouri.  We chartered in 1992, and currently, our membership consists of about 40 Scouts and 30+ adults.  As part of the Thunderbird district in the Heart of America Council, we camp year round, in addition to attending a long term session at the H. Roe Bartle Scout Camp.
     We're sponsored by the Catholic Families for Scouting organization and hold our troop meetings at Our Lady of Presentation Catholic Church in Lee's Summit.

New Troop Hair Styles -  Color Optional
Wanting to be different, our Venture Crew was seen at the Mavericks game sporting a new look for their hair.  Now that is some serious scout spirit.  Thanks to Mrs. Ripper for catching this on a camera. 

   Philmont 2012
  To All Troop and Crew Members and Adults: Between Troop 391 and our Venture Crew, we have available in the Summer of 2012 up to 36 open spots (3 crews) for participation in a Philmont Expedition.
     Dates of arrival at Philmont for the Expeditions are August 6th and 7th, and dates of departure to return from Philmont are August 18th and 19th. The numbers of position for Scouts or Adult Leaders are up to 12 Adults, and/or 30 Scouts. (I know the numbers don't add up.) Each Expedition is comprised of up to 12 individuals, 2-4 adults (over age 21) and 8-10 scouts. We will comprise as many crews and individuals who would like to participate. HOWEVER, we must make our reservation by February 25, 2011.
    Scouts that would like to attend must be 14 years of age OR have completed the eight grade and 13 years of age at the time of participation. (This is a change from previous years.)
    The fee for the Expedition is $740.00 per participant, and covers the expedition along the trail. This does not include travel costs, equipment, meals during travel, souvenirs, etc. A non-refundable reservation fee of $100.00 is due to Philmont by February 25th. Subsequent payments will be due 10/1/2011 and 3/1/2012.
    **Important** In order to verify we have interest enough to reserve at least one Expedition, I need to know who is interested in attending. To date, I have received only one email confirmation from a scout expressing interest in attending. If you would like to attend one of these Expeditions, please send me an email as soon as possible to jmarkey@kc.rr.com confirming your interest.
    If I receive enough positive responses, I will move forward with reserving as many expeditions as we need to accommodate our group. You can find additional information about Philmont at http://www.philmontscoutranch.org/ or feel free to contact me if you have any questions.
