It’s now time to continue planning for Spring Camporee 2019!

This year’s Spring Camporee, “Leave No Trace – Bike Camporee” will be held at Lake Rebecca Park Reserve in Rockford, Minnesota on May 3-5, 2019.  Our attendees will be a able to ride their bikes throughout the park on the extensive bike trails, or hike on the various walking paths. The focus of the camporee will be to understand the seven principles of ‘Leave No Trace’, participate in various troop competitions, programs, and merit badges, including presentations and demonstrations by Erik’s Bike Shop and Gear West.

This will be a more of a traditional camporee, which will include tent camping, hiking, cooking, crafts, a bike safety check, and troop competitions.

Please join us on Thursday, February 21 at the Ridgedale Public Library for our first camporee planning meeting.  Our host units for this Spring are: Troops 206, 583 (girl troop), 481, and 571. It  would be ideal to have a youth leader and an adult leader from each host unit at this meeting.  At the meeting, we will establish a framework and schedule for the camporee and outline the details of the planned activities.

I look forward to seeing all of you at the meeting.

Thank you.
