RSVP DEADLINE MAY 25
Hi T26 Scouts and Scouters,
Please plan on a beautiful backpacking weekend trip from NIRA trailhead (near Figueroa Mtn) to Manzana Narrows Camp. The Narrows is a beautiful spot where there is a lot of water and there is shade provided by the steep walls of the gorge. We’ll get an early start each day, in case the forecast is warm.
We will meet at Big 5 parking lot before 7am and carpool from there.
This outing is appropriate for all Scouts in our troop. Please remember, we all need to participate regularly in troop weekend backpacking and hikes so that we will be prepared for the more challenging trips ahead.
WE WILL DO ORIENTEERING AND NAVIGATIONS SIGNOFFS (2nd Class Item 3 and 1st Class Item 4) ON THIS TRIP.
Scouts will camp two per tent. Tent buddies must be within 2 years of age.
Cook groups will be by patrol and each patrol will plan and buy its own food. Show your meal plan to me before purchasing.
The pack list is at our troop website[/url]. CHECK OUT YOUR GEAR TUESDAY 29TH SO THAT YOU CAN INSPECT IT BEFORE THE TRIP.
BSA Policy is that only registered adults may go on overnight events. If you are a parent who would like to go on events like this, please register as a member of our Parent Committee. See Chartered Org. Rep. Paul Weakliem for details.
RSVP at your earliest opportunity, please. There is no fee to participate.
Yours in Scouting
Mike Schley, SM
