Friends, brothers, alumni, lend me your ears!

SERVICE WEEKEND* is coming up, on the first weekend of term, September 
11-13. The idea is to kick off the term with a weekend of fun service 
and lots of time spent enjoying each others' company before we get too 
hosed.

We'll be working at Camp Resolute, renovating one of their buildings 
that badly needs it. We'll spend the mornings and afternoons working, 
eat delicious food during breaks, and spend evenings hanging out, 
playing games, and roasting marshmellows.

If you're interested in spending time with friends and brothers, and 
helping Camp Resolute continue to be a place where young scouts can come 
to grow as leaders and citizens (and did I mention the delicious food?), 
come to Service Weekend! Anyone and everyone is welcome to attend, 
including friends, prospectives, alumni, and brothers.

If you're interested, sign up on the doodle below when you're available. 
Sign your name and whether you're certain you're coming or not - for 
example, "catherio (yes)" or "ben bitdiddle (maybe)". I will try to find 
us rides that maximize how many of us can be there and for how long.

Also, if you can drive, your help is greatly needed! Use this doodle to 
let me know when you can give a ride:

Even if you're not sure you can come, please sign up anyway, and let me 
know if there is anything I can do to help make sure you can come! It's 
a fun experience and nobody should be left out if they want to be there.

Enjoy the rest of your summer, everyone, and I look forward to seeing 
you at Service Weekend!

* This is the same project you may know as Chapter Weekend, but with a 
name change to encourage friends and prospectives who are not part of 
the chapter to feel equally welcome.
