OLC

We are planning four events this year, as in past years on the mornings of the second Saturday of January to April months.

This year, there are two objectives; 1) to continue the vine program in the George Lorimer Preserve; and 2) to build on the pilot barberry removal begun last year in the Cool Valley and Airdrie Forest Preserves. At the same time, there will be an opportunity to perform any needed tube and cage maintenance on the new plantings.

To do some of the activities that our Scouts like to do - like opening our archery or BB gun range for an afternoon, or going on high adventure trips, we need adults who have the right training to help out and make these events happen. This includes things like getting CPR certification, Wilderness First Aid training, Archery range and rifle range safety classes. Some training also helps us maintain Camp Jarvis (such as a class on how to use a chainsaw safely). You can obtain this training from the BSA and other organizations, and we post many of these training needs and classes on the Troop's website.
