November 2012 update

Here is an update as to where I am with my goals:

Goal 1 - I have been talking to Linda, my unit commissioner, about hikes with theFriends of Sterling Forest State Park group.  She is going to get me together with Doc, who leads many hikes and who is great with the scouts.  I found Doc on Linkedin and messaged him and am awaiting further correspondence.  Slow progress thus far.  Back in early November, Randi and I spent a morning hiking around Bear Mountain and decided that would be one of the hikes for the scouts.  I am also trying to get on a hike with some boy scouts.  The local troop is doing some hiking so i'm hoping to glom on and attend.

Goal 2 - I need to take the online pack trainer course.  Still on the table.  The superstorm, other commitments,  and both jobs, have delayed me from getting too far.  i am hopeful to get to it during the thanksgiving break.

Goal 3 - no progress to report thus far - emailing Chris H. today with Council to relay idea and get approval.

Goal 4 - Starting to identify committee members.  So far it will be me, Bill M, Gary P (Donny's Dad), and i'm hopeful to draft a few scouts and a Tiger Cub dad to help me.  I think that's a fair size.  I hope to gather everyone starting in January.

Goal 5 - I have received the name of the scout leader in England that our friend Emma knows.  I've emailed what I'm looking to do and am awaiting response.

 - emailed my ticket counselor Joe to set up get-together
