 Parents,

The 2017 and 2018 trips are underway  but it is never too early to start thinking about 2019 

The first step is to identify trek leaders.   If you can lead one of these, please see Mr. Tischler:

• 2019 - Philmont
• 2020 - Northern Tier

The event of the year - let's get a huge turn out for Troop 777 Resister here.

If you are only going to go on one campout this upcoming year (and why would you do that), well it should be Sash ‘n Bash 2, hands down. This event is all about having fun, fellowship, and service. We’ll have activities ranging from gagaball, to massive climbing towers, to even a Scoutmaster dunk tank! Oh, and there’ll also be HUGE concerts both nights featuring a great band and amazing DJ!

OA Ordeal candidates register directly with Noquet  Lodge and not with 777. Click here for more details

Shawn Dennany, the Reservation Director at Gerber Scout Camp has asked us to let him know the number of scouts we anticpate at summer camp this year, July 30 through August 5.   All scouts are welcome, but this is an especially great chance for our younger scouts to have a lot of fun and pick up rank advancement and merit badges in the process.
