We're going to the Guard! And since there isn't a *ton* of other stuff to review, this will be a relatively quick email.

Itemization of the Few, the Proud, the Topics:
(1) Reminders about Visiting the Air National Guard
(2) Reminders about the Bike Hike
(3) Advancement Cutoff
(4) Backpacking This Summer
(5) RSVP for Michael Kling's Eagle Ceremony
(6) Congratulations

Reminders about Visiting the Air National Guard
********************************************************
Some things to remember about tomorrow's tour:
(a) We are meeting at EMS at 6:00, not 6:30
(b) Everyone should wear his Class A uniform
(c) The tour goes until 8:00, so pick up for kids will be between 8:20 and 8:30 at EMS.

************************************
Reminders about the Bike Hike
************************************
We're doing bike checks at my house on Thursday, June 1st from 6:30 - 8:00. If you are going on the bike hike, please let me know whether you expect you'll be able to make it to check your bike out. People who do *not* come and whose bikes break down on the trail will be mocked and derided mercilessly.

The cutoff for submitting blue cards for advancement is tomorrow. Those boys still requiring boards of review will be able to get them at next week's meeting.

I have attached the permission slip for the upcoming backpacking trip. It is due at the meeting on June 7th.

Everyone in the troop should have received an invitation to Michael Kling's Eagle ceremony to be held on the afternoon of June 11th. Please make sure you RSVP to the Kling family either way so they can make the necessary arrangements.
