Hey Troop 1!
10 Mile Hike
Philmont crew has a 10 mile hike scheduled for Saturday at 8 AM. If you are interested in joining us, please meet at Minnehaha United Methodist Church tomorrow morning. Bring a water bottle and something to eat for lunch. At typical Scout walking speed, hikes are usually done around 1PM.
Philmont crew, I strongly suggest you wear the backpack you intend to bring on trail while on our trek. Load with your usual weekend camp gear and at least 2 liters of water for weight. Using your actual camp gear is the best way to add weight to your pack. Getting used to your pack, and getting used to how you want to load it out, are important parts of preparing for the trip!
Tomahawk Summer Camp sign-ups are open.
If you plan to attend summer camp, please submit your registration form as soon as possible.
Summer camp registration happens in two steps:
- You submit the Google form indicating your top choices for activities and merit badges.
- I use your form to register you with Tomahawk to try and lock in your choices.
If you do not do step 1, I can't do step 2. Individual programs at Tomahawk can fill up fast. If you want your top choices, make sure you submit the Google form before program selection opens for your age group.
- Camp program selection is open NOW for Scouts 16+
- Selection opens for Scouts 14+ on April 22
- Selection opens for all age groups on April 29
As a reminder, the Troop registers with Tomahawk as a group. Scouts should not be submitting registration requests on the Council camp sign-up pages. We take care of that for you - but you do need to fill the Troop Google form to ensure we know that you want to go to camp!
