This week's Patrol Box was hard to put together. There was a lot of stuff to come across my plate this week, which is good for Scouters! What I don't use this week, will probably go into the hopper for next week.
Weather was the first thing--I don't know about you, but ours has been all over the place. 30s some nights, rain, clouds, and tomorrow looks like it might get close to 75 degrees for "Trick or Treating".
My grass is still green and I picked 2 cups of cherry tomatoes the other day.
Be prepared, take the Hazardous Weather training, and keep a pot of soup on the back burner for the Scouts.
Enjoy the Patrol Box!
