Based off of the requests of the scouts, this upcoming trip will be the first we have done like this.

Youth will be broken up into patrols in advance of trip. Each patrol will make their own menu, buy their own food, and cook on their own. We will have a contest as to who can make the best breakfast, lunch and dinner. 2 Meals/day will be cooked over an open fire so plan accordingly.The other will be on a stove, Stove & Pans will be provided, everything else is the patrol’s responsibility

We will be staying in lean-to’s

There will be various skill based contests with great prizes. Ie. who can build a with fire using the bow and drill method, put up a tarp in the quickest amount of time, finding where you in the woods just using a map and compass, best shelter, and much more.

Cost of the trip will vary based on each patrol’s menu. We will charge $5/person to cover any incidental costs we have (please bring $5 on Friday).

As with all other trips, no electronics (except for a camera or am/fm radio) will be allowed.

Sign-up via email (respond to this post) or at Friday’s meeting. Due to the fact that a lot of planning is necessary for this trip. We are closing out sign-up on Friday at 730p.

We will be leaving on Thursday at 6p & expect to return around 12-1 on Sunday.

We will be staying by the Lodge House in Keowa.
