2020 Pack Camping at Lone Tree (cancelled)
Pack 313 will be camping at Lone Tree Scout Reservation from Friday, May 1 to Sunday, May 3, 2020. Scouts, siblings, and parents may join us for any combination of Friday night, Saturday, and Saturday night. On Saturday, we’ll be participating in Lone Tree’s Saturday Open Program, which includes lots of fun activities, like BB guns, archery, challenge course, and nature activities. The Saturday Open Program is free for those with a Council Adventure Card (which all Pack 313 registered Scouts have). Parents and siblings can register (for ~$20) and participate too.
For camping, we’ve reserved two group tent sites and one cabin (with bunks for 12), all in the Sacawacas area. For the tent sites, you’ll need to bring your own tent. If you haven’t camped before, we’ll talk about things to bring (or not to bring) to make your experience pleasant, safe, and fun. We haven’t yet decided how we’ll organize meals, but we’ll let you know in plenty of time. Depending on the number of families, we’ll either let each family plan their meals, or put families in groups and let each group plan their meals.
We plan to have a campfire (or campfires) of two types. One type of campfire will be a campfire program, when Scouts, Scout leaders, and parents will have the opportunity to create their own entertainment with items such as skits, songs, cheers, and stories. The other type of campfire will be a dessert campfire that features marshmallows and other camping treats.
We wanted to introduce this activity now so you can save the dates on your calendar. We’ll let you know more details as we figure them out. Since we’ve already reserved the campsites, if you want to join us, we’ll need at least one week notice so families can coordinate meals.
