Do not go canoeing or swimming in the Huron River (west of Wixom Rd), Kent Lake (Kensington Metropark) or Island Lake. There has been a chemical spill and the water is contaminated. Heavner Canoe's business will be significantly affected by this, and they always treat our scouts very well, so maybe we can do a Troop canoe trip with them, once it's all cleaned up. Mr. Kavenaugh found this news article, with more information: https://www.bridgemi.com/michigan-environment-watch/cancer-causing-hexavalent-chromium-spills-wixom-plant-huron-river
Please join us! The Ottawa district (which Troop 755 is a member) is holding its second annual Best of Ottawa event on Wednesday August 24.

This is an adults-only event that will include a sampling of the best craft beers brewed in the Ottawa district as well as the best chili that the district's troops and packs can make. Troop 755 will be entering into the contest. If you would like to join the chili cook-off, send a note to Mr. Laabs.
