The troop April Campout will be Saturday, April 9th through Sunday April 10th at Savoy Mountain State Park in Savoy Massachusetts. We will meet at the parish center at 8AM so that we have sufficient day light for our adventures. We will return for pick up at the parish center by approximately 1PM on Sunday. Scouts need to bring: a bag lunch for Saturday and all the items called for on the backpacking checklist on our website.
Scouts will be cooking their meals (dinner and breakfast) patrol style over an open campfire. Patrol meal planning will take place at the April 1st troop meeting. Note: April weather can be surprisingly cold, particularly on the mountain….so be prepared!
If you son will be attending the campout, please complete the permission slip and return no later than the start of the March 31st troop meeting. If you son would like to attend but won’t be at this troop meeting, please call or email Brian Weber before April 7. We will need a few parents to drive to/from and/or stay for the event. If you can help out please indicate on the permission slip.
There is a nominal $5 fee per person to offset the cost of the campsite fee. Please make checks payable to Troop 4 and include payment along with your permission slip.
