If you want to re-live memories (or see what you missed) from this past weekend’s Nuclear Science Merit Badge class at the American Museum of Science & Energy and the wild caving overnighter at The Lost Sea Adventure, there are plenty of photos now posted.

A new page has been added to the Troop 170 website that will answer your most Frequently Asked Questions in one place. This page should be especially useful to our new Nature Patrol Scouts and their families.
If you don’t have time to check it out now, there are links on the T170 Overview page and on the Resources page.
Now available: 97 photos from the recent Chili Court of Honor and Pack 170 Webelos Crossover are now available on the Troop website.
Did you know: There are more than 3,400 photos from recent and past activities. A listing of past events with links to photo albums on the “Past Events” page.
The Troop activity calendar has been updated through Memorial Day and includes the date for the all-Scout Swim Check – Monday, April 15. Also, please note next Monday (March 4) is when the $50 Summer Camp deposit is due. For details click here.
Just a reminder that our annual Chili Supper Court of Honor will be held Monday, February 18, starting at 6:30 pm. Your entire family is invited to attend. Please plan to arrive 15 minutes early with your food.
Once again, all Patrols are asked to bring specific food items (see flyer). Unit adult leaders and Committee members are asked to prepare chili. Be creative.
On Sunday, February 10, Troop 170 will celebrate SCOUT SUNDAY with our Charter Organization, East Somerset Baptist Church, as a way to say thank you for their continued support.
Scouts should meet at 10:15 am in the front of the church, in full uniform with neckerchief. This is for ALL members of your family, regardless of religious denomination or beliefs. Services will conclude at Noon.
This day we will also be participating in the annual SCOUTING FOR FOOD drive, so please bring non-perishable food items. We will donate all food collected that day to a local food bank or non-profit organization.
Please let Mr. Loiacono, Mr. Bullock, or Mr. Renner know you plan to attend as well as sending an RSVP to Judy Price.
Two updates:
1. A reminder that this Thursday, January 17, is a SERVICE PROJECT for the Somerset-Pulaski County Chamber of Commerce. Scouts are needed from 5 pm to 7 pm at The Center For Rural Development to assist with welcoming guests and manning the coat check station. Please wear complete Scout uniform with neckerchief and dress shoes.
2. Photos from the Klondike Derby are posted. Troop 170 took first place for marksmanship! Webelos from Pack 170 took first place for orienteering with a score more than double that of any troop. And, we had snow for the Klondike sled race! Click here to view photos.
