Backpacking October 13
Our fall backpacking trip is Saturday, October 13th to Sunday, October 14th. We will be hiking in the George Washington National Forrest. We will meet at the PUMC shed at 8am Saturday and return on Sunday afternoon. Bring a bag lunch with a beverage for Saturday. This will be a dry campout; all Scouts should carry 3 liters of water. Sturdy hiking boots are required. We will stop for a fast food lunch on our way back. Bring small bills to pay cooks ($15) and buy lunch ($10) on Sunday. Cooks should contact me directly before buying food.
The troop will hike 3 miles to the campsite and 3 miles out. If we have enough older scouts and parents that desire a longer hike, we will offer a 8-mile hike in with 3 miles out.
If you have any troop equipment outstanding, return all troop equipment at the Tuesday troop meeting on October 9th. The return of all troop equipment is mandatory. Make arrangements with your PL if you cannot make the troop meeting to return equipment.
We will need at least 6 parents to drive and attend. When signing up please note how many people with packs (including yourself) will fit in your car.
Please RSVP by Tuesday, October 9th at 10pm if you wish to attend.
