Dear Parents, Scouts and Families,
It’s hard to believe summer has come and gone and the new scout year is upon us! I hope this note finds you and your families well.
We had a fun and productive summer to say the least. Twenty-three scouts and three leaders attended Knox Trail Council’s Camp Resolute in Bolton, Massachusetts for our week long summer camp from Sunday, July 24th through Friday, July 29th. While at Resolute, our sons attended merit badge classes in the mornings and enjoyed scout activities and the waterfront in the evenings. Our sons earned over 70 badges ranging from rifle shooting to environmental science. Many thanks to Mr. Comisky and Mr. Roberts who were able to spend the week with us as adult leaders.
Back at home, Anthony Matondi was the latest Troop 4 scout to earn the rank of Eagle. Congratulations Anthony!
Currently, we have two scouts actively engaged in projects. Evan Kehoe is starting construction of music racks designed to accommodate sting instruments at Milford High School. Soon to follow will be Chris Watson who has proposed the construction of water resistant team benches for the High School swimming area. These certainly will be two great contributions to our community.
It’s shaping up to be a great year in scouting!
I look forward to seeing you all soon.
Brian/Mr. Weber

Dear Parents, Scouts and Families,
Well, it has been a little while since I sent a newsletter and I sure have a lot to report. On February 4th we celebrated with our scouts at our Eagle Court of Honor where we recognized the achievements of our scouts and recognized Eric Buckenmaier, Alex Hastings and Brandon Kee with the award of their Eagle ranks. (see page 11 of the Milford Town Crier at the following link: http://www.towncrier.us/pdf/milford/MTC%2016.03.11.pdf) On February 18th we welcomed Conor Maier as Troop 4’s 40th Eagle Scout. Shortly thereafter, on March 1st we welcomed Michael Weber as Troop 4’s 41st Eagle. Congratulations to all of our sons.
On February 19th and 20th we were in the White Mountains of New Hampshire having fun in the snow. We hiked across the frozen tundra to our luxurious cabin accommodations; enjoyed some radical sledding; were mesmerized by Derek “Big Air” Jordan; and enjoyed some fine cuisine. Not to be outdone, Mother Nature blanketed us with 10 inches of snow for our hike down the mountain. We overcame the icy parking lot with a few pushes here on the rears of our vehicles and after escaping the French speaking plow driver (at least I think it was French) we made our way down the road to warmer climes approaching 55°. Fun was had by all. Check out our photos here: http://www.troop4milford.org/2016/02/27/lonesome-lake-nh-february-2016
On February 27th and 28th it was my pleasure to attend two Blue & Gold Banquets to welcome seven new scouts to Troop 4. Crossing from Pack 67 were Walker Aulenti and Joshua Anderson. Walker joined us this past November at our WEBELOS campout and Joshua braved the cold to visit us at Upton State Park for our January Freeze-Out. Crossing from Pack 4 were Mark Butters, Joseph Coplan, Jhohann Edmonds, Joseph Lancisi and Christopher Silvestri. Mark, Joe Coplan and Jhohann were able to spend us time with us at our WEBELOS campout this past November. Joe Lancisi and Christopher are familiar faces from Pack 4.
Anyway, I hope you enjoy the update. I listed a few reminders, below, as we head into this week’s meeting.
