Hello, Trail Life families! 🇺🇸

Our last Troop WI-1201 meeting brought together stewardship, faith, creativity, and plenty of fun! We also welcomed Trail Dad Brian and Adventurer Levi into our troop. We’re glad to have you joining the adventure!

💵 Stewardship: The Trailmen learned about caring wisely for what God has given them—putting needs before wants, saving, and making a budget.

✝️ Faith: Our faith portion focused on tithing and recognizing that everything we have comes from God, including our talents and ability to work. Using Proverbs 3:9–10 and Leviticus 27:30, the lesson explained how giving to the church honors God, expresses our gratitude, and supports His work. We encouraged the boys to see giving as an opportunity to serve Him with what He has entrusted to us.

🥚 Egg Drop Challenge: The boys put budgeting into practice by using pretend money to purchase materials and build protection for their eggs. Sadly, no eggs survived! 😂 Maverick’s egg was the “least broken,” earning him bragging rights. Clearly, we need an engineer as a special visitor next year—any volunteers?

🏁 Egg-and-Spoon Races: The races were a ton of fun, with plenty of laughter as the boys practiced balance, patience, and teamwork!

🏡 Continue at home: Ask your Trailman what he would change about his egg-drop design and how he can honor God with what he has. As a family challenge, consider a small paid job and giving at least half of the earnings to your church or a local charity.

Thank you to our leaders and dads for helping make the evening possible!

Walk Worthy! ✝️🇺🇸

Lets welcome this new Trailman - Zechariah, to troop WI-1201! Just turned 5 years old and excited to join his brother on the trail.

🇺🇸 𝟗/𝟏𝟏 𝐌𝐄𝐄𝐓𝐈𝐍𝐆 𝐑𝐄𝐂𝐀𝐏 🇺🇸

Although our local first responders were unable to join us, we had an incredible evening filled with learning, teamwork, and adventure! We welcomed many visitors—and officially welcomed two new Trailmen, Teddy and Zechariah, into Troop WI-1201!

Just two months after losing his leg in an accident, Zechariah’s determination and adventurous spirit were on full display throughout his first official troop meeting. Nothing was going to slow him down!

Troopmaster Rick began the evening with an awesome presentation explaining what happened on September 11, 2001. Afterward, we prayed for those who lost their lives and reflected on the courage and sacrifice shown that day.

Then, without warning, mysterious smoke began rapidly filling the building! 🚨

The Trailmen immediately evacuated, and First Officer Mason conducted a head count. One person was missing—Trailmaster Jaxon!

The Navigators were given a rescue mission: enter a dark, smoke-filled building, locate their missing Trailmaster, assess and treat his injuries, and safely evacuate him. Teamwork, courage, and clear radio communication were essential!

Outside, the Woodlands Trailmen divided into two groups:

🩹 𝐓𝐑𝐀𝐔𝐌𝐀𝐓𝐈𝐂 𝐅𝐈𝐑𝐒𝐓 𝐀𝐈𝐃

The boys learned how to apply direct pressure, wrap a bleeding arm injury, and use an improvised triangular bandage as a sling. Trail Dad Josh made an excellent victim—with a little help from some Halloween cosmetics!

📻 𝐒𝐄𝐀𝐑𝐂𝐇, 𝐑𝐄𝐏𝐎𝐑𝐓 & 𝐑𝐄𝐒𝐂𝐔𝐄

The second group located injured Trailmen in the field, reported the situations and injuries to Ranger Jessie by radio in 911-call fashion, and used WWII-style stretchers to carry their patients safely back to headquarters.

The injuries became increasingly creative throughout the night—including a “fall from an airplane” and, in Zechariah’s case, a “shark attack” that apparently explained his missing leg! 😂🦈

Every rescue was exciting, every patient was recovered, and no Trailmen were lost!

We ended the evening with everyone energized and eager to help clean up before the retirement of the colors.

Our verse and theme honored the heroes who sacrificed their lives on September 11:

“Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends.” — John 15:13 KJV

🇺🇸 Never forget. Be courageous. Serve others.
🌲 Walk Worthy!

🗺️ ⭐ 𝗧𝗥𝗔𝗜𝗟 𝗟𝗜𝗙𝗘 𝗪𝗜-𝟭𝟮𝟬𝟭 — 𝗠𝗔𝗣 𝗦𝗞𝗜𝗟𝗟𝗦 𝗡𝗜𝗚𝗛𝗧 ⭐ 🗺️

Our Trailmen had another great night of learning, fellowship, faith, and adventure!

🧭 𝗟𝗜𝗙𝗘 𝗦𝗞𝗜𝗟𝗟𝗦: 𝗠𝗔𝗣 𝗦𝗞𝗜𝗟𝗟𝗦

This week our boys worked on their 𝗠𝗮𝗽 𝗦𝗸𝗶𝗹𝗹𝘀 𝗖𝗼𝗿𝗲 𝗦𝘁𝗲𝗽! They learned about road maps and topographical maps, map symbols and legends, elevation, contour lines, and how maps can help us understand and navigate the world around us.

🍬 Then it was time to put those skills to work!

Our Trailmen broke into teams for a 𝗵𝗶𝗱𝗱𝗲𝗻 𝗰𝗮𝗻𝗱𝘆 𝗺𝗮𝗽 𝗰𝗵𝗮𝗹𝗹𝗲𝗻𝗴𝗲! Each team had to hide their treasure, create their own map using symbols and landmarks, and then exchange maps to see if the other Trailmen could successfully find it.

✝️ 𝗙𝗔𝗜𝗧𝗛: 𝗟𝗢𝗢𝗞 𝗨𝗣

Our lesson also reminded the boys that throughout Scripture, mountains continually point us toward God. Moses received the Ten Commandments on Mount Sinai, Jesus taught on the Mount of Beatitudes, and Psalm 121 reminds us where our help truly comes from:

⛰️ “I will lift up mine eyes unto the hills, from whence cometh my help. My help cometh from the LORD...” — Psalm 121:1–2 KJV

💙 𝗔 𝗩𝗘𝗥𝗬 𝗦𝗣𝗘𝗖𝗜𝗔𝗟 𝗪𝗘𝗟𝗖𝗢𝗠𝗘

This meeting was especially meaningful for our troop family.

Zech, the young brother of one of our Foxes, recently lost a leg in a farming accident. After everything this brave little boy has been through, our Trailmen were excited to warmly welcome him back after his time in the hospital.

He was greeted with 𝗵𝘂𝗴𝘀, 𝘀𝗺𝗶𝗹𝗲𝘀, 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗵𝗮𝗻𝗱𝗺𝗮𝗱𝗲 𝗹𝗲𝘁𝘁𝗲𝗿𝘀 from the boys. ❤️

Zech has a long road ahead, but his spirit is incredible. He is looking forward to overcoming his challenges, getting his new “robot leg,” and — when he turns 5 later this year — finally becoming a 𝗳𝘂𝗹𝗹-𝗳𝗹𝗲𝗱𝗴𝗲𝗱 𝗧𝗿𝗮𝗶𝗹𝗺𝗮𝗻 himself! 🦿💪

We couldn't be prouder of the way our Trailmen surrounded this little boy with friendship, encouragement, and brotherhood.

🌲 𝗪𝗮𝗹𝗸 𝗪𝗼𝗿𝘁𝗵𝘆.

2026 Rocket Night Album

08/15/2026

🚀🔥 𝗪𝗛𝗔𝗧 𝗔 𝗡𝗜𝗚𝗛𝗧 𝗙𝗢𝗥 𝗧𝗥𝗔𝗜𝗟 𝗟𝗜𝗙𝗘 𝗪𝗜-𝟭𝟮𝟬𝟭! 🔥🚀

Rocket Night was an absolute blast — in more ways than one! 😂

What started as a fun evening of launching rockets quickly turned into a somewhat chaotic 𝗟𝗔𝗦𝗧-𝗠𝗜𝗡𝗨𝗧𝗘 𝗥𝗢𝗖𝗞𝗘𝗧 𝗕𝗨𝗜𝗟𝗗-𝗢𝗙𝗙 as boys and dads scrambled to get rockets assembled, repaired, prepped, and ready for launch. 🔧🚀

There was glue, tape, missing pieces, questionable engineering, and plenty of laughter!

But one of the best parts of the night was simply watching 𝗯𝗼𝘆𝘀 𝗵𝗮𝘃𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗳𝘂𝗻 𝗮𝗹𝗼𝗻𝗴𝘀𝗶𝗱𝗲 𝘁𝗵𝗲𝗶𝗿 𝗳𝗮𝘁𝗵𝗲𝗿𝘀 — building together, launching together, chasing rockets together, and making memories that will hopefully stick with them for a very long time. ❤️

🎉 We also got to celebrate 𝗡𝗮𝘃𝗶𝗴𝗮𝘁𝗼𝗿 𝗕𝗿𝗮𝗱𝗟𝗲𝗲’𝘀 𝟭𝟬𝘁𝗵 𝗯𝗶𝗿𝘁𝗵𝗱𝗮𝘆! 🎂

Happy Birthday, BradLee!

The evening had just about everything:

🚀 Rockets flying
🌭 Hot dogs
🔥 A campfire
🍫 S’mores
🎂 Birthday cake
🙏 Prayer
👨‍👦 Fathers and sons spending time together
😂 A whole lot of laughter

We were also incredibly blessed by a special gift from the 𝗕𝘂𝗿𝗸𝗲 𝗳𝗮𝗺𝗶𝗹𝘆 — a beautiful image of our troop created in the style of 𝗚𝗿𝗲𝗲𝗸 𝗢𝗿𝘁𝗵𝗼𝗱𝗼𝘅 𝗶𝗰𝗼𝗻 𝗮𝗿𝘁.

It was such a unique and thoughtful gift, and one we’re grateful to have as part of the memories from this night. ❤️

And then there were the rockets... 🚀😂

We are proud to report that approximately 𝟵𝟵% 𝗼𝗳 𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗿𝗼𝗰𝗸𝗲𝘁𝘀 𝘀𝘂𝗰𝗰𝗲𝘀𝘀𝗳𝘂𝗹𝗹𝘆 𝗹𝗮𝘂𝗻𝗰𝗵𝗲𝗱.

We are somewhat less proud to report that approximately 𝟵𝟵% 𝗼𝗳 𝘁𝗵𝗼𝘀𝗲 𝗿𝗼𝗰𝗸𝗲𝘁𝘀 𝗮𝗿𝗲 𝗻𝗼𝘄, 𝘀𝗮𝗱𝗹𝘆 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗵𝗶𝘀𝘁𝗼𝗿𝗶𝗰𝗮𝗹𝗹𝘆, 𝗿𝗲𝘀𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗼𝗻 𝘁𝗼𝗽 𝗼𝗳 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗳𝗮𝗰𝘁𝗼𝗿𝘆. 🤦‍♂️😂🚀

Apparently our young rocket scientists have mastered 𝗹𝗮𝘂𝗻𝗰𝗵𝗶𝗻𝗴.

Recovery may need its own Trail Life branch. 😂

Most importantly, through all the excitement, running, launching, campfires, and chaos, 𝗲𝘃𝗲𝗿𝘆𝗼𝗻𝗲 𝘀𝘁𝗮𝘆𝗲𝗱 𝘀𝗮𝗳𝗲. 🙏

We ended the evening grateful to God for another opportunity to bring families together, build friendships, and give these boys experiences they’ll remember.

𝗧𝗵𝗲𝘀𝗲 𝗮𝗿𝗲 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗻𝗶𝗴𝗵𝘁𝘀 𝘁𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗺𝗮𝗸𝗲 𝗧𝗿𝗮𝗶𝗹 𝗟𝗶𝗳𝗲 𝘀𝗽𝗲𝗰𝗶𝗮𝗹. 🇺🇸
