Planned Options for Navigators & Adventures

There will be free time available to swim, zip-line into the lake, boat or fish, as the patrol decides. The number of openings in each patrol will be limited, so signing up early will guarantee that you will get the patrol you want. Some patrols may have per-requisites to complete before they come to camp.

Woodland Trail and leaders and parents have the opportunity to stay indoors (though if they want to camp in tents…that would be okay) in camp hogans (bring your sleeping bag and pillow).

Generally troop members that are in hogans will be kept together.
