Dry Bags for Canoe Trip
Those going on the canoe trip will need a large waterproof gear bag. We will be carrying our tents and sleeping bags in the canoes. These are often available at WalMart. Mr. R. will have an example at the next meeting. Many scouts in the troop may already have some those going on the trip can borrow.
Those going to Emerald Bay will also need these so you may want to purchase one now.
