PLC Planning Meeting – August 2025

On August 23rd-24th, our youth leaders of the Patrol Leadership Committee headed to Bumblebee Ranch to plan events and outings for the year to come! After 8 hours, the scouts had chosen which outings they wanted to do. Afterwards. Many of the scouts decided to go swimming, before playing Uno.
“I had a great time planning out the trips this year, and it was nice to have a say on where we go. Not as many bees as advertised” – Milo B.

2022 December fun meeting

Dec 22 Arcade night

This year’s December troop fun meeting was held at Starfighters Arcade. Located at 4840 E. Jasmine St., Mesa, 85205, it was approx 45 minutes away.

All machines are part of a personal collection that grew too big for a warehouse so they rented old office space and set up an arcade with all the games. There are more than 100 upright arcade games and more than forty pinball machines. During the party all games were free to the troop, so no one needed to bring quarters.

Thank you to Wyatt and Ms. Newell for planning such a fun event!!

2022 Planning Retreat

2022 Planning Retreat at R-C Scout Ranch on August 13 & 14.

For the first time in troop history, the well at Bumblebee Ranch ran dry and they had to cancel our reservation. Mr. Geer found alternative accommodations at R-C Scout Ranch where we will spend the weekend in the Van Ness Lodge. The lodge has 6 bedrooms with a total of 32 beds, so everyone was able to sleep in beds.

This is a working weekend where the Scouts spend most of Saturday
determining the troop’s 2023 outings schedule and main events for troop
meetings. There was free-time Saturday afternoon after the planning
session was done. Hiking to Box Canyon, swimming in the swimming hole, and nighttime basketball were all enjoyed by the Scout leadership.

Food was supplied by the troop (planned by Mr. Geer and cooked by the Scouts). Sunday morning the PLC meets to organize the events for September.

It was a treat to hold this special event at a new location. Thanks for the quick planning, Mr. Geer!!!

Sept 2021 Canoeing Workshop

For those who needed some practice time in a canoe or needed to demonstrate the ability to return to shore, The Troop held a paddle craft workshop on Sunday, September 12th at Lake Pleasant.

The plan was to start at 9:00 am and go until noon (or earlier if everyone is able to meet the requirement).  It was an “open house” type format, so come as you are able.

We  met at Lake Pleasant near the Two Cows Cove. We where down by the shoreline north of Desert Tortoise Rd.  We had have 5 canoes and life jackets for those that need them.
