    Remember, at this meeting on Tuesday:
        a-We have to have sufficient scout interest.    Deadline to signup is tonight!!!!!!!!!!!!
        b-We have to have sufficient adults available to do another event. The scoutmaster along with four others are engaged in the trip to the Yukon.   To compensate, we will have to have parents help set things up and put in motion if we are going to add another activity
