What about those defective day packs?

Now that you've had a shower (I hope) and a good night's rest, I thought the time was right to contact you about the day packs that many of you had trouble with at Jamboree. Mr. Howard has contacted the supplier and feels confident that we will be able to get replacements, but he would like to provide them with evidence of how the product failed to hold up. So, if you have a pack that is torn or ripped in any way, please take a picture of the defect and send it to Mr. Howard. He will gather them all together and send them to the supplier some time next week. Do it now, while you're thinking about it.

Email your pictures to jkhoward8@gmail.com.

We'll keep you updated on what we hear from the supplier. Thanks for your help with this!

We've just left dinner in Indy and are on the road.

We'll arrive at the Schnucks in Normal at 10:45-11pm.

We'll arrive at the Kmart on Lake in Peoria at 11:45-12:00am.

See you soon!  And just a warning...we might be slightly stinky!

Almost home

We will be back in Bloomington at 10:45 and back in Peoria at 11:30. 

From Lexington, KY...

Hmm...Scribe is snoozing again, even as a movie blares all around. Current estimate is 11:30 p.m arrival in Normal, 1 a.m. in Peoria. This includes stop in Indy for dinner.

On the bus

Well we've left the jambo and were on our way. We're still in West Virginia but hopefully we will make it to Illinois soon. 

We're on the move!

The scribe is zonked out on the bus, so I will report thet 343 is on the move. We dropped one scout with his parents and are proceeding to a meeting place with 419 and 404. Progress reports to come as we move into Kentucky and Indiana.

Time to break camp

Time to break camp. We will all miss jambo but everyone is excited to see their families.
