Where and when do we meet (no minimum attendance requirement)?

We would like to meet twice a month, but due to lack  of attendance (most of our current youth are inactive) we can not always meet even once a month. If we have enough adults and you do not mind the probability that you are the only other person there, we would be happy to set up a meeting by appointment. We used to try to meet on a Tuesday or a Friday, but if that is not okay we can work something out. We normally meet at one of the following locations. Please contact us for this month's schedule. (See bottom of page for contact info). 

• Raymond High School (room 209) at 6:00 p.m.- 45 Harriman Hill Road, Raymond, NH 03077

• Raymond United Methodist Church at 6:00 p.m. – 51 Main Street, Raymond, NH 03077 (use side entrance on Wight Street)

Monthly activities  – we would like to again begin holding low or no cost monthly activities different from our regular meetings, however we are in need of more members  (hopefully you) to do so.

 NO MEETINGS OR ACTIVITIES IN DECEMBER.

How much does it cost?

We have an $18 membership fee that is good through the end of 2018. Many of our activities are free, while others have a small cost. We will be doing fund raising to cover some costs of activities.

Guess what?

The youth members of the crew pick can pick the activities and programming they would like to do, within reason, and within the crew's capabilities. Adult members are present for support, advice, guidance, working on awards with the members, etc. 

Current members?

We currently have 3 male and 2 female members, ranging in ages from 15-19.

Crew 795

We are currently a small and new Venturing Crew. This has its pros and cons. Scheduling difficulties for larger activities are probably the hardest challenge. However, there are also many benefits to a small crew. Individual members have a greater say in what we do (within our capabilities) and when we do it.

 Adult leaders (there are 6 registered adult leaders – 1 male and 3 female)

June Dickerson – Committee Chair

Jane Bailey - Committee Member
