Troop 387 has a 12-day Philmont trek from June 10, 2021 to June 22, 2021.
We have 5 spots filled right now (1 adult and 4 scouts), so we have up to 7 spots remaining.
We need at least one more adult, which would leave 6 spots for youth.
The total reservation fee is $1,065.00/person. (That does not include the cost of our transportation to Philmont.) Only the initial deposit of $100.00 is due right now. The remaining reservation fee will be split into two payments of $482.50 that will need to be made in September 2020 and February 2021. We have to have our initial deposit to Philmont this Thursday, January 30. Please let us know if you have anyone interested in joining our crew.
If you have any questions, feel free to email Eric Milner at [email protected].

As mentioned at the October Roundtable, we will have Recharter Training tonight at November Roundtable. Please have someone from your unit in attendance.

Some things to remember to make recharter easier for you and your unit:
All registered adults must have a new background check form signed. It was sent in early October by Boy Scouts of America.
All registered adults must have current YPT.
Your unit's Key 3 received an email in late October from Linda Presley with your unit's specific log on code.
Start working on your Journey to Excellence (JTE) form. Log volunteer hours at https://servicehours.scouting.org/UI/Security/Login.aspx
Collect any youth applications and fees that haven't been turned in yet.

Our District Turn-In Party will be December 5 at the next Roundtable. Please bring your completed paperwork, youth applications, supporting documents (YPT certificates for new adults, background check forms and JTE form,) and a check made payable to the Longhorn Council.

Thank you for your help and dedication to Scouts.
