Troop 151 - Georgetown, TX

Hol-Ry!

Hol-Ry is the hailing sign for voyageurs of the Northern Tier Wilderness Canoe Base. When a voyageur encounters another on the trail, it is customary for one to address the other with "Hol-Ry" and the other to respond with "Red-Eye".

Update: as of Dec 18th, only one slot remains - contact Mr. Hopkins ASAP if you want to participate!

Last night the troop voted to do the Chisholm Trail Adventure at Texas High Adventure Base as the "medium" high adventure for summer 2008.

Last night the boys voted to attend Worth Ranch for summer camp this year. Mr. Powell has reserved the week of June 22nd for us. You can read more about the camp at http://www.longhorncouncil.org/camp/worth_ranch/index.htm - it should be lots of fun.

Our troop committee has decided to partially subsidize youth attending Silver Pines, our council's youth leadership program, this winter. This takes place at the same time as Winter Camp, so it's an either/or decision. It is a seven-day, six-night outdoor experience for youth leaders; the new syllabus integrates the best of modern leadership theory with the traditional strengths of the Scouting experience. Through activities, presentations, challenges, discussions, and audio-visual support, participants will be engaged in a unified approach to leadership that will give them the skills and confidence to lead well.

Welcome to our new troop web site. We expect to be able to keep this site much more up to date with timely information, calendar items, and other news of interest to troop families.
