Troop 173 Campout & Turkey Cookout

Dear Webelos and/or Arrow of Light Parents,

Troop 173 would like to invite you and your Webelos and/or Arrow of Light Scout to attend their December campout, Saturday December 10 through Sunday December 11 at Winnebago Scout Reservation in Rockaway, NJ Please plan to be in the Camp parking lot by 11:30 AM on Saturday and we will return home on Sunday before lunch. Overnight camping is included in the experience, but staying over is optional.

During the campout, the boys will have a chance to try out some Boy Scouting activities, enjoy some hearty Scout cooking (Saturday dinner will be Turkey cooked outdoors over the coals and served with all the trimmings) and have a lot of fun learning some skills as well. We might also do a hike so water bottles and hiking boots would be good idea. They can complete several Arrow of Light requirements, besides the overnight camping experience.

More details can be found in the attached handout. Troop 173 has asked that you reserve NO LATER THAN DECEMBER 1, in order to purchase enough food.  As a part of your registration, please complete the attached Permission Slip. Unless specific arrangements are made with your cub scout or den leader, permission slips and payment should go to Troop 173’s Mike Catapano at 5 Marston Dr., Morris Plains NJ 07950.
