(XGV6+V74 Ashburn, Virginia or (38.9946132, -77.4892939)This is perfect because our new scout campout will be at the exact same place starting at 1:00 pm.

While the training is for Philmont readiness, it will actually be more of a back country camping skills review with stations set up like how to use camping stoves, how to set up bear bags, and other practical back country camping and backpacking skills. And the cost is free.

If you are interested in attending please RSVP by 3/1.

Come join us on Wednesday for some Chipotle! We are having our patrol outing at the Belmont Chase Chipotle, from 7 to 8pm. The troop gives us 10 dollars per person for Patrol Outings, so as long as your meal is under 10 bucks it's free. I will be paying for everyone's meals, so I can get us refunded. Also, no uniforms of any kind are required. Parents, drop off, and don't need to stay. Please RSVP and let me know by Tuesday, so I know who's going. Email me if you have any questions. Thank you, and hope to see you there!
