North Star is having a gathering of OA members where we are going to have lots-o-fun! First, we are going to clean out brush, then we will have a free barbecue lunch, and then we will play soccer and football. It is named "1 vs 100" because we are trying to get 100 brothers at the gathering.
All brothers who attend will recieve a free pizza lunch at the May lock-in!

Are you a good speaker? We are in need of Camp Promotion speakers. You give a small speech about the fun times at summer camp and high adventure camps. With your help, we can achieve our goal of 100% of all troops promoted!
If you want to help with the camp promotion effort, call Steve Mohan, the camp promotion chairman, at 314.839.8569.
