SUMMARY:Father Longua Farewell Celebration\, Sat. 07/14/18
DESCRIPTION:No TSG1 registration/RSVP required.  See below for MD-specific registration.\n\nAs some of you already know\, our dear chaplain will be leaving us for a new assignment soon\, likely mid-August.  We all owe him more than most will know.  His counsel has been priceless\, his support relentless\, and he believed in our organization from the start and showed it in his support.  No matter how precious his time\, he has never failed in doing his very best to spare himself or one of his much needed priests for any of our events and for our beautiful camps Masses and Confessions\,\n\nThe very least we can do is to be there for his farewell celebration and show him how much we appreciate him.  And it looks like it will be a lot of fun too!\n\nAdrian Montes\, the Mater Dei Parish Life Coordinator is very excited about TSG1 being part of the event. Please let us show up in force\, and IN THE MOST COMPLETE CLASS A POSSIBLE\, at least for a group picture with Father\, even if you have to change from B to A for that purpose .\n\nAt some point during the evening\, we will present Father Longua with a “gratitude plaque” (see attached picture) with the following inscription on the back:\n\nTo Father Longua\nTSG1 First Chaplain\nIn Appreciation for your Dedication\nand Service to the Troop\nThe only other such plaque in existence was given to Cardinal Burke by TSG National (he should be made aware of that!;) ).\nAs our Liturgy Lt.\, I would like Lt. Pinkerton to present this plaque to him\, since I will unfortunately be in NC on that day. \n\n\n1st Lt. Fusselman and Brad Toups will be in charge of the event.  Adrian Montes would like for TSG1 help with anything we can from set up to take down\, wherever we can help.  He is also specifically counting on us to run and supervise the Street Hockey activity.  MD has some equipment\, but he is asking for people to bring hockey sticks and wiffle balls\, so please do\, if you have any.\n\nPlease use this link to individually register:  https://materdeiparish.com/goodbyefather/\nUnder “Please Volunteer to Help the Event”\, please select all you can do\, and under “Other”\, type “TSG1”.\nIdeally\, Adrian would like us there starting at 1530.\n\nThank you for your participation.

Fusselman (who used to be a fishing guide)\, will learn about lake safety\, boat operations\, regulations\, and who knows\, might even get a little “stick time” (if allowed).\n\nFood and drinks WILL NOT be provided.  Bring whatever you need.  Coolers are fine.\n\n\n\nMeet at the Silver Lake Marina\, 2500 Fairway Dr.\, Silver Lake Marina\, Grapevine\, TX 76051 at 0830 SHARP\nPlease wear your TSG1 t-shirts for easy identification\, even if you change out of them later\nIf any of you has special tubes or water sports paraphernalia (inflatable canoes\, inner tubes\, skis\, etc…)\, please feel free to bring them\nWe will have the pontoon from 0900 to 1300\n\nI will not be able to make it (kills me!!!)\, so if you have any question\, please contact 1st Lt. Fusselman at 214-592-5479.  Please do not be late\, as you would cost everyone lake time.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nHave a great time!

SUMMARY:Sat. 08/25/18: Yearly Planning Meeting/Pool Party
DESCRIPTION:Please RSVP so we can plan for food accordingly: \n\n  \nSteve and Cindy Porter (from Porter’s Army Navy)\, big fans and strong supporters of TSG\, have generously insisted that the troop uses there residence once again for our planning meeting/pool party.  It is time to plan for next year goals and activities\, and present major changes and a new direction. \nAll troop members are invited and encouraged to come to the Porters’ residence from 1500 to 2000 at:\n1425 Broadmoor Lane\nIrving\, TX \nEven if you cannot stay long\, please come to the planning meeting.  We will do that first\, hopefully close to 1530 for an hour or so\, so we can get as many people involved as possible. \nBring campouts ideas and suggestions!  Don’t assume others will!  Remember the campsite and camp ideal requirements:\n\n\nwithin approximately 1hr of Irving\n1 central activity for the cadets\, long enough to occupy them for at least half a day\nfirewood available\, or built-in time to collect it\nfree venue if possible\n\n\nThis is your troop\, and your input is required.  It would also be a good time to bring up any general suggestions or issues anyone might have. \n  \nThe pool has a slide\, diving board\, and there is a concrete area with basketball hoop.  The dads and officers will be able to meet either on the outside patio or inside.  The troop will provide/handle dinner on the grill.  Since our policy specifically prohibits alcohol on campouts\, and this is designed to be a more relaxed atmosphere where safety is not such an issue\, adults are authorized to bring the beverage of their choice\, while remembering that “…our adult leaders are gentlemen and know the sinfulness of drunkenness…” (Officers’ Manual)  and that we have an example to set. \nThis event is free\, but we will have a donation jar to help cover the cost of food. \nNaturally\, bring bathing suits!

SUMMARY:11/30/18 to 12/02/18 - Camp: "Contio" with TSG5/31/33/77/1107 at TSG1 H.Q. - CAMPCRAFT
DESCRIPTION:Typical camp schedule and fee.\n\nSEE CAMP DETAILS & SCHEDULE HERE:   https://www.dropbox.com/s/lovh00t498wjp3s/Contio%20Campcraft%20Nov%2030%20thru%20Dec%202%202018%20TSG%20Campout.pdf?dl=0\n\nOur upcoming assembly of TSG Troops or ‘Contio’  will focus on campcraft and is a mere 9 days from today -Nov 30 thru Dec 2.  It will be held at our HQ camp and we will have Troops 5\, 31\, 33 and 77 and 1170 (from waco) in attendance.  We expect about 80-100 folks total.\n\nEach troop will be responsible for its own food and some of it will be done over open fire by the boys.  There are a few things we do need to coordinate.  Let me know by Sunday\, Nov:25 pm if you can help coordinate one or more of the following numbered things:\n\n1)  We need to lead the campfire on Friday and Saturday nites-\n2)  We need to lead the morning and evening prayer and flag ceremony on Saturday and Sunday morning prayer.  Note that all troop captains have expressed interest in learning to to this better\, so who ever wishes to coordinate this might be ready to have boys from all the troops helping out.\n3)  We need to make sure that we are sufficiently prepared for the Mass- Fr. McDonnell will be offering the rite of Penance and the Sacrifice of the Mass.  We do need some help in coordinating servers for this as other troops may wish to assist in this regard- Scott can you do this?\n4)  Can someone join me in arriving early friday afternoon ( I intend to arrive by 2:30 at the latest) and assist organizing fire rings for the friday nite campfire\,\n5)  Can someone be in charge of making sure that the saturday nite campfire is ready too?\n\n\nAs you can see from the schedule\, the various troops will be putting on one or two ‘campcraft’ sessions concurrently on saturday morning.  this means that no one will be able to attend all of them\, but everyone will be able to attend at least 3 of them.  Each session will run about 45 minutes\, and allow 15 minutes of transition between sessions.  We are responsible for the’ Knots you need to Know’ session and the ‘Gear you need and how to Pack it.”  My 16 yo son Max will lead the Gear group\, and I can lead the Knots group but both of us can use some assistance. If you know about these things\, can you help?  Let me know.\n\nAlso\, we are going to have a human foosball tournament on Saturday afternoon\, and someone good at setting up a tournament needs to run this\, otherwise we will have bonafide chaos and not too many will get to play.  The games will necessarily be short.  I will also bring a long\, large rope and we can use for the boys to have a tug-of-war with between foosball sessions.  Does anyone have some horseshoes or similar games that they can set up for the boys to play that afternoon?\n\n6)  We will need to have some skits or some activities to do for the Saturday nite campfire that will include the entire group.  Any volunteers?  Is there a Dad or two that can lead a good Story or Spiritual Reflection for part of the campfire?  Likewise\, can one of your boys sing a song or do some type entertainment for the event?\n\n7)  While we will do the food shopping as normal\, this camp we wish to focus on getting your kids (and you) the chance to build campcrafts skills.  One of those ways is to give all the chance to cook their own food.  So\, as normal\, friday nite meal is on your own\, but saturday breakfast will be something like ‘eggs and bacon in a paper bag’ https://youtu.be/sUhmhVanP_o and for saturday nite\, something like what we used to call a ‘bum supper’ now known as a ‘tin foil supper’ https://youtu.be/S0V43G_qYcI.  If you know of a great type of meal\, let us know so that we can get the raw materials for such a meal and have them ready to prepare for this campout. For such meals\, we will prepare the raw ingredients\, but the goal is to have each boy prepare and cook his own. That means that you might see about getting some gloves and a small shovel or tongs for your use in tending the meals while in the fire since so many will be doing this.\n\n8) Fire Tender:  As you can see\, we are really going to be relying on open fires a lot this campout and I would like to get one or two of the Dads to make sure that we have great beds of coals in adequate quantities for each meal so that the fire is ready and able to do the job when the meal/campfire time comes.\n\nFinally\, this will be the only event we have in December as there are insufficient priests to conduct our Day of Reflection during advent.  However\, Fr. McDonnell will be leading us in a Christmas season day of reflection at Mater Dei\, but it won’t be until January.

We will need to bring our own wood\, so if you have some\, let me know.\n\nFirst:  the deer hunting did not materialize this year:  we need to secure a place earlier and during hunting season.  I have access to a raw land place near RockSpring in Edwards County\, but that is 7 hours from here (one way).  A closer place would be better.  For this camp\, we will\, instead\, be going back to Restoration Homestead (10032 SE County Rd. 4200 Kerens TX\, 75144\, map location here:https://goo.gl/maps/EqKm8DiitcT2).  While we won’t be harvesting and processing deer\, we will be harvesting and processing chickens.  This is a neat place and they have hosted us before.  The last time we were there\, they killed a pig for us\, allowed us to gather eggs\, taught the boys how to forge and print\, and we fished.\nIn the alternative to deer hunting\, we will focus on two main tracks this camp:  harvesting chickens (literally from cluck to tin foil baked chicken\, chicken tortilla soup\, and fresh baked no knead bread).  While all boys will observe actual dispatching\, cleaning\, and preparing for cooking at least 1 bird\, not all will have to actually do the dirty deeds.  We will need about 4-7 boys total to do all of the chicken processing\, vegetable chopping\, etc\, so be thinking if your son would be one to do this.   All boys\, however\, will also help prepare the harvesting process by 1) helping to lash together an A-frame device from which to dangle chickens while being dispatched\, 2) build a fire and prepare the scald pot\, and 3) all boys will aid in making the no knead bread.  Mixing the bread will begin Friday night\, the cooking of it will occur Saturday in the brick oven.  As to the lashing of the A-frame.  All boys will do this \, perhaps working in small groups of 3 or 4 boys each\, and the best A frame built will be used in the chicken harvesting\, so all will actually lash together a couple of tripods and cross members. \nThose boys not actually helping to dispatch and prepare the chickens will go on a five mile backpack/hike. The goal here is to have each boy prepare and pack a pack\, then go on a five mile hike carrying that pack.  The hike will begin and end at the camp area.  This will help as we begin to integrate backpacking into our ordinary activities\, at least in part.  If you like\, you may also ‘pack it in’ and live out of your backpack this weekend if you like as well. \nWhether the boys harvest chickens or go on a 5 mile hike\, we need to work on the Apologetics AC.  To make this happen\, I would like to get each of you Dads to look thru the AC and be prepared to teach the boys some aspect of the course.  This teaching will be done during the hike/harvesting by taking maybe 30-45 minutes out of the activity\, or perhaps have two 20-minute sessions and study two aspects of the course.  The goal here is to actually teach the boys some of this material\, as we all know how important these skills are for our boys.   The AC can be found by downloading the Field Guide from the TSG main web page here:  https://troopsofsaintgeorge.org/wp-content/uploads/2018/09/2018-09-21-TSG-Officers-Manual-2018-Ed.pdf \nIn addition\, I am asking for songs that we can sing.  IF you know of a good campfire related or hiking related song that we can all learn\, I want us to do that during the morning session of hiking and harvesting as well.  Yes\, I am open for suggestions.  And\, yes\, we will need to make copies enough for everyone to learn from.  We should be able to all sing the selected song(s) at the campfire Saturday evening without resorting to the song sheet. \nAlso\, note that we will be taking an hour Sunday morning to go over advancement status\, so get a hold of a field manual and start seeing where you and your boy(s) are in this regard. \nWhile we almost have the new payment system up and running\, it may not be in time for this camp.  Therefore\, we will have ordinary registration for this camp starting this weekend\, January 19. I will send out a notice that registration is open probably Saturday night.  Please register No Later Than Monday evening\, January 21 so we can make proper food purchases\, etc.\n\nI need from you  two things:  1)  which aspect of the AC or lashing effort you would like to address for the boys\, and 2) which of your boys would would like to take part in the actual dispatching and preparation of the chickens.\nThank you.  God bless.

SUMMARY:02/22/19 to 02/24/19 - Camp at Meridian State Park - Hike\, Achievements\, Ranger-led Class
DESCRIPTION:  \nHi All\,\n\nI have attached a spreadsheet with the current details on the camp.  I visited HQ this week and found it unsuitable for camping due to excessive standing water\, so we will be going to an alternative camping place:  Meridian State Park\, and we will be camping in the Cedar Ridge Youth Group Camp site.  The file below contains links to various maps of the park and emergency services.\n\nTSG 1 Campout February 22-24 2019 Details\n\nThis camp out we are going to hike the trails in the morning and work on advancement items after a Ranger led program about animals right after lunch on Saturday. So bring your current list of advancement items you have already completed\, and those you anticipate working on.\n\nI am checking with Fr. McDonnell on Mass for Saturday afternoon\, and will update you on any changes well prior to the weekend.\n\nYou will not have to personally pay any park camping fee for this trip\, that is covered by the Troop.  However\, because this camp is at the state park\, you will need to purchase a day use pass for each individual that is $5/person/day unless you have a park passport\, in which case the fee is waived (by the way\, the annual pass is 70/year and it gets you in all parks for free for everyone in your car.  If you visit 2 or more times anywhere\, it pays for itself\, or so I have found out.  You can buy a pass at the park if you like\, and any day use fees for this event will be waived).  That payment will need to be made by you when you register at the gate when you arrive.  Those arriving after the office at the park closes\, it is no problem\, you can address it Saturday morning.  I will give further instructions on late arrivals on Thursday the 21st.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nLet me know if you have problems with the spreadsheet file by texting me at 972 375-1934 and I will get a different file format to you .\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThank you.  God bless.

SUMMARY:03/22/19 to 03/24/19 Camp - Hiking\, Remote Camping\, Camp Craft Skills
DESCRIPTION:While we originally planned to visit Clear Creek Monastery this March\, that will not be possible this camp.  Should you wish to travel to Clear Creek\, I have asked Troops 5 and 31\, who I understand are planning to visit Clear Creek\, one in March\, one in April if some could tag along with them.  Contact me at 972 375 1934 if you wish to do this.\n\nDuring this camp we will establish our normal camp.  However\, on Saturday morning\, the seniors will  pack their backpacks with all they will need and hike about a mile out and establish a tent camp\, bringing all they will need with them\, including food and water\, tents\, etc.  Cadets not remote camping will work on camp craft skills\, till the backpackers are ready to leave\, then will begin a 3 mile hike and tag along with the backpackers until they arrive at their camp spot.  The younger cadets will then continue on their hike while the seniors will set up camp. Lunch on the trail.   All will join at the campfire Saturday night. We will focus on our goal of completing the apologetic AC for all participants and will also spend time to make sure that each cadet is in possession of their proper rank and patches.  Of course\, fishing is on as usual\, as will be foosball.  Registration open from 3/12-3/19.  Fee is standard $15/per person with $45/family cap.  We may have two loaner backpacks so if you would like to borrow one\, let Captain Toups know by 3/12.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nNOTE:  Registration for this event will be open from 3/12 thru 3/19.  Please register within this window of time.\n\n\nPlease click on the following link for camp details: TSG 1 Campout March 22-24 2019 Details\n\n\nThank you.  God bless.

Dominic at the monastery would like to get a rough idea of the number of TSG helpers within the next week\, please RSVP let me know if you and your boy(s) are planning on attending this year as soon as you can\, but no later than next Tuesday evening\, May 28th\, and sooner if you can.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThank you.  God bless.

SUMMARY:04/25/20 Day Event - Fishing with "Mr. Crappie"
DESCRIPTION:RSVP:\n                             \n                        \n                        \n								\n								We will not attend this event\n							Event Start Date* Last name of those NOT attending* \n          \n            \n            \n            \n            \n            \n            \n            \n            \n            \n        \n                        \n                        \n		\n		\nDay activity.  Free event. \nDear members\, \nUnfortunately\, both our Machanicamp and Thien Tam Family camps have been cancelled for fairly obvious reasons.  Nonetheless\, our boys (and dads) are certainly starting to feel the effects of cabin fever. See below for our alternate\, awesome plan! \nChris\, the HQ landowner is giving us access to his pond anytime until normalcy resumes.  This is a great way to safely get some fresh air.  A semi-pro angler who fishes his pond caught 30 fish just a couple of weeks ago and said that he hadn’t seen that kind of fishing since the 80’s! \nWhen going on your own\, use either the regular gate or the one by the water tower.  The code to the gate lock is St. George’s feast day\, April 23\, or 0423.  Please make sure to lock it behind you\, linking it to another lock.  Other people have their own locks\, and interlocking them gives us all access. \nRandom people seem to use his pond occasionally.  If you see anyone else there\, please notify Eric Gruchet at 214-213-0216 and he will pass it on to Chris who will decide if he wants to check it out or not.  Some have his permission\, some do not. \nALTERNATE\, AWESOME PLAN FOR SAT. 04/25/20: \nWe will have none other than Wally Marshall\, “Mr. Crappy” come give everyone a lesson and fish with us!!!  He’s super nice guy who lives 3 miles from HQ.  He said he will have goodie-bags for everyone\, t-shirts and what-nots.  He is very excited to be able to be doing this and was the one thanking us profusely! \nFor those of you who do not know who “Mr. Crappie” is\, click on the links below.  If you have ever bought any fishing gear anywhere\, you have seen his name.  We will have our very own superstar of fishing! \nhttps://www.mrcrappie.com/ \nhttps://www.crappieexpo.com/ \nhttps://www.wired2fish.com/news/crappie-expo-2020-destination-announced/ \nPlease plan on arriving to be set up by the pond at 0900 for a very educative and fun day of fishing! \nWe WILL be observing proper social distancing for this event\, so there should be no fears with compliance with suggested health directives.   Further\, we will not be sharing ANY supplies for safety reasons.  Let’s be responsible in the way we “gather”.  The troop will not provide anything except the opportunity to get to the outdoors.  Bring your own drinks\, lunches\, sunblock\, spare rods\, and whatever supplies you may need. \nPlan on entering through the water tanks gate on the southeast corner\, south from the regular gate.  Park inside the gate and walk from there\, or further down the path if you have the right vehicle to do so and the ground is dry enough.  Plenty of parking areas closer to the pond. \nMr. Crappie needs to know how many people will attend so he can bring enough “goodies and t-shirts”. Trust me\, kids will get a kick about wearing a “Mr. Crappy” t-shirt… \nPlease register asap. \nLet’s get out\, get some fresh air\, learn\, and have good fun fishing! \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThank you.  God bless.

WARNING for iPhone users: the iPhone map does not know Carver campground. \nFor those who wish\, and if the timing works\, bring a change of Sunday clothes (and deodorant!) to keep in your car.  There is an FSSP Sunday Mass at noon near Little Rock on the road back to Dallas. \nAs a suggestion and to make sure we think of everything\, click on the following link to a list 1st Lt. Fusselman has compiled from his last 6 Buffalo River trips experience: Buffalo River Checklist – Improved for Next Canoe Trip \n \n  \nAdditional suggestions: \n\nSwim pants (your knees will be red after day 1 if only wearing swim shorts).\nSwim shoes.\nWater straw (Sawyer Straw\, $20 at Walmart).\nMREs for lunch on the river (Amazon)\nWalmart has a selection of dehydrated-just-add-water meals but they require hot water (dinner?)\nContractor bags are a cheap alternative to wet bags.\nIf you intend on fishing the river\, anyone over 16 needs a license ($16/3 days or $25/7 days):\nhttps://www.takemefishing.org/arkansas/fishing-license/?&gclid=CjwKCAjwxLH3BRApEiwAqX9arXKnHsiGwBlT7GUYmdLxgZm9o17A2Dt3s9MBUR8BC5wQu8Da1WUA4RoCrloQAvD_BwE\nOr download the AGFC app (AR Game and Fishing Commission)
