As we do every year, Troop 828 will hold our annual Webelos Overnighter campout for up-and-coming Boy Scouts, a campout that gives the Webelos II scout and his family the opportunity to meet our troop and to experience what Boy Scouting is all about.
The Webelos Overnighter program is designed for Webelos scouts to experience Boy
Scout camping activities. Our activities will include tent setup, fire building,
knot-tying, first aid, Arrow of Light ceremony, and an introduction to the
patrol method, among other things. Parents will have the opportunity to visit
with our Scoutmaster, Assistant Scoutmasters and other adult leaders, and to
learn more about our program and what we have to offer to our scouts.
We hope you'll join us!
