Pack Campout
Our annual Pack campout at Fisherman’s Bend will be on April 24 -25. We’re excited to see what the weather brings us! Our scouts and families are troopers whether we have sun or snow. Families may begin arriving after 4:00 on the 24th. We will be camping at the Steelhead group site. Camp trailers are welcome. Electricity is available however water/sewer hookups are not.

Families will need to provide their own dinner. BBQ pits will be available. If you have firewood that you would be willing to donate, we would appreciate it. The pack will provide the ingredients for s’mores. Please bring roasting sticks (make sure they are labeled).

We are asking each den to prepare a song and/or skit to share on Friday night. We can’t wait to see what they come up with!

Saturday breakfast assignments
Pack – scrambled eggs & veggies
Tigers/Wolves/Bears – Juice or milk
Webelos 1 – pastry or muffins
Webelos 2 - fruit

We will do a service project at the campground on Saturday. We aren’t sure what it will be yet but it would be a good idea to bring work gloves, shovels, and rakes. And as always, prepare for the weather!
