Details: We're heading south for this year's bike trip! We'll haul camping/cooking gear from Hardee's to Durand in the troop trailer, so the burden will be light. We'll be bicycling entirely on paved bike trails, on the Chippewa River Trail, through Eau Claire, and on to Durand via the newly-paved section. The trail is paved and flat, but it is about 36 miles each day, so boys should bring a bike in good working order, and should try to do a little conditioning before the trip. Also, helmets are mandatory. You can eat breakfast at home, or at Hardee's if you arrive before 8:30. (If you've never gone 36 miles in a day, don't worry; it's easier than you think...we've had plenty of 11-year-olds able to make it, and even a couple 9-year-olds.) When we arrive in Durand, we get to use the SWIMMING POOL and showers that are open until 8:30 p.m.! We'll be stopping at Dairy Queen near Carson Park on the ride home. You can use leftover patrol money for treats, or bring your own money if you want.

Retain the above information and return the form below with any money by 7:00 p.m. Monday, July 15, 2013. (If you can't make it to that meeting, MAIL IT IN to 1900 Eagle Street, Chippewa Falls, WI 54729 so that it arrives by that day.)
