Every year scouts from all of the troops Wapiti gather in Cook Park to celebrate the anniversary of scouting. Each troop comes up with a scouting theme or an activity. Also Webelos from around the district join in for the Saturdays activities. Last year the troop made a Trebuchet, donuts and fried Chicken strips. Yum.

Saturday evening after dinner we will have a rousing Campfire with the other troops. Sunday morning we will make breakfast, pack up and then meet up at Scout Sunday at Calvin Presbyterian.

Pack a lunch for Saturday. Be prepared for the weather as it is February. We will be planning meals the first meeting in February.

This is a great opportunity to take care of Rank requirements

2012 Snow Caving Outing Feb 18-19 PDF Print E-mail

Troop 799's annual Snow Caving Outing is Feb 18-19 at Timberline Lodge.

We will be spending the night near Timberline lodge (6000 ft.), in snow caves that we will prepare on Saturday, note we are not taking any tents. After dinner Saturday evening we will make a trip to the lodge to warm up and get dry (should any of us be wet from digging in the snow all day).

 We will cook Saturday dinner and Sunday breakfast. Bring a sack lunch and drinks for Saturday. You will also need to bring plenty of water to drink as digging is thirsty work, and at these altitudes dehydration is a problem especially at this time of year.

We will depart after breakfast and camp cleanup.  Bring personal camping gear and warm clothing (snow gear & boots), NO COTTON CLOTHES OR SNEAKERS. It normally takes all-day to prepare the caves, and the weather can get below zero, especially if there is any wind. You will also need to bring a flashlight with FRESH batteries, ground sheet, and an insulating sleeping pad (closed foam) as you will be sleeping on snow, something to dig a cave with.  With the rain we had this week plan on having to dig through a layer of ice.  Please see the attached file for the permission slip and additional information.
