Eagle Mountain Camp July 22 - 25!!!
Battalion Summer Camp
Friday to Monday
July 22 to 25, 2011
Friday to Monday
July 22 to 25, 2011
Eagle Mountain, Coquitlam
Battalion is going camping in the local hills to accomplish two goals: to test our Air-Soft skills and to build a Chapel. We've been camping on Eagle Mountain for years. We have several campsites along Noons Creek and will be staying at our Upper Falls Camp. The area is very interesting: it's within an easy walk of a logging camp that has long since been lost to the forest; there are numerous moss-covered corduroy-roads; and logging equipment that turns up in surprising places. The Port Moody Museum has asked us to look for evidence of the logging railroad that used to chug up the mountain. There's a swimming hole in the creek, and lots of firewood to keep us busy.
We leave from the church on Friday afternoon (2:00pm sharp) and return on Monday just after lunch to the church.
We will have FRS Walkie-Talkies and cell phones for emergency purposes. We'll take all our food up with us. We will be sleeping in a large lean-to. And, we have to carry all our gear, including the Air-Soft equipment. We've got to brig down a widow-maker and then rebuild the lean-to. We'll be building benches and tables at the camp and then erecting a cross and some benches at the Chapel. This is our big project - an area set apart for the Lord and for our own needs to be close to Him. There will be lots to keep us busy. This is going to be an excellent camp.
The cost is $30 for 4 days, 3 nights, 8 meals, snacks, and Air-Soft supplies.
Contact Capt. Howard by email or phone if you're going.
Here's a checklist for gear: https://docs.google.com/viewer?a=v&pid=explorer&chrome=true&srcid=0B4W0q5f9r9JXY2E5MzBiMGUtODM1Mi00ZTM5LTk1YmItZGZmMGMyMmNiMzVl&hl=en_US

Thursday June 16
Hi Guys,
What's happening on Thursday this week? Well, it depends on the weather.
If we've got good weather the plan is to go canoeing on Como Lake. Be at the church about 6:45pm and we'll head for the lake right at 7:00. If you get to the church and we're not there and it is after 7pm then we'll meet up with you at Como Lake. Don't worry about missing us at the lake as it isn't that big of a lake.
If the weather is not so good (i.e. raining) then the plan is to do some board type games with snacks in the basement.
See you then,
Lt. Garth

Year End BBQ - Captain's email
Guys,
Battalion's year end BBQ is set for this Thursday, June 2, 2011.
Rain or shine.
We'll meet at the church at 6pm, and leave about five minutes later... 6:05pm, so that we can arrive at Belcarra Park around 6:30pm. We can provide rides for all the guys who are at the church in time, but if you're going to be late, you can be dropped off at the park and we can give you a drive back to the church around 9:00pm. If the weather is good, we can be as late as 9:20, even 9:30pm.
It's the usual menu - burgers, dogs, pop and ice cream. And, it's no-charge. If the weather is good, we'll have the canoes and we'll putter around the inlet. If you've got your Federal Waters Fishing Licence (it's free, if you've under 16, but you still have to have it), and you bring your crabbing gear, you can go crabbing.
We look forward to seeing all our Thursday and Friday night guys there. We're going to have a great time.
God bless.
