Winter Camporee Info

This Friday, Jan 7, the troop is planning on attending the District Winter camporee at Baiting Hollow Scout Camp. This years theme is Orienteering.

While we won’t be doing any skiing, we will be using a sled and competing against other troops in various map and location challenges. According to the District Website:

the sled should be loaded with whatever would be needed to treat hypothermia and frostbite, plus a compass, dry wood, magnesium fire starter, supplies needed to build a shelter, and lunch!

A detailed schedule isn’t available yet, but here is an outline of the weekends activities.
