The Troop will head to Myles Standish State Forest for a fall bike trip, heading down the night of Oct 1st and returning Oct 3rd. We’ll use Camp Squanto as our base and hit the paths to explore Myles Standish. The forest is part of the Atlantic coastal pine barrens ecoregion and consists largely of pitch pine and scrub oak forests—at 26 square miles (67 km2), one of the largest such forests north of Long Island. The forest surrounds 16 lakes and
ponds, including several ecologically significant coastal kettle ponds. Additional information and permission slip can be found under the Campout and Event Information section.

The troop has volunteered to participate at West Hill Dam on Sept. 25th from 8:30 to 2:00. West Hill has been the site of many scouting events for Troop 4 and Pack 4 and it’s time to give back. Please let Mr. Comisky know as soon as possible if you’ll be attending with the troop so that the Park Rangers can plan accordingly.
