As you probably already know, Camp Horseshoe was recently closed due to a
spreading virus through the Campers and Staff. Because of this, I decided that
we needed to move the place and date of the Lodges Annual LLD. Instead of the
reported Date of August 16th, It will be moved to September 7th at the Council Service Center. We will start
to gather at 10:30 AM with the event starting at 11 AM. The Lodge Meeting will
be held at the regular time (2 PM), with the event ending at close to 6:00.
Snacks will be provided throughout the day and Dinner will be provided at the
end (Lunch will not be provided) I know this is short notice, but do to these
circumstances, the event needed to be moved. If you have any questions, feel
free to email me at
