Agenda• Overall way forward

– Old business– Trailer Fund: $1,093.24– Trailer dimensions– Patrol method

• Equipment• Dimensions

• Compartments– Wood– Aluminum

• Shelves– Wire– Aluminum

• Placement within trailer• Voting

Concept for trailer

1. Start with patrol shelving reflective of patrol method of Scouting

2. Evaluate way ahead and proceed on plans for stowage of other equipment

Intentionally avoiding lengthy discussions of:

• Troop equipment• Tables• Chuck boxes• Water tank• Fire pit

• These (and other) are all discussions worth having; only trying to focus on patrol equipment storage and transport right now.

Old Business…

• Trailer - Jeff is looking into aluminum to keep shelving lightweight.

• Ray to contact Jim Young to observe T-2880 trailer (a positive example?). [No]

• Jeff - cost out plans; share by email 11 June. • 20 minute presentation/discussion 14 June.• Present [committee] options/adjustments 15

June, with execution timeline

Priorities and Constraints Patrol Method

• Patrols should each maintain their own equipment and will if identical sets are assigned to each patrol

- VS -• Equipment is not identical and we regularly pull equipment

from several sets to adequately outfit the unit for camping

• Plan: inventory and assign equipment; identify items to standardize and deliberately replace non-standard and broken items

• Option: store selected equipment (especially lanterns) together to allow easy access and access to multiple items and use non operational equipment for spare parts

Priorities and Constraints Equipment Dimensions

• Patrol Equipment Shelves must accommodate current Patrol Boxes (minimum 22” deep)

• Lanterns must store upright in case (minimum 12.9” tall)

• Propane Stalks (minimum 24” wide)• Must accommodate overall equipment list
