Bee Mountain Campout - October 18-20

Posted on Oct 10 2024 - 10:28am

We’re going back to the Brazos River - only WAY down river – to Bee Mountain Resort.

Bee Mountain Resort is a remote Texas ranch that sits on 350 acres on the Brazos River with 1.5 miles of clean sandy beaches. This section of the Brazos River is known for having some of the best water in Texas for fishing, kayaking, canoeing, boating, water sports and just about anything else that involves nature and wildlife.  Their campsites are all located directly on the Brazos River. Great tasting water from a deep well, clean restrooms located on premises and two port-a-potties will also be brought into our reserved area. The Scouts can go hiking, fishing and have some good old-fashioned Scouting fun!

To help cover the cost of campsites, the charge will be $10 per Scout (no charge for Adults).  All the details, signup and permission slip can be found HERE.

Trail to Troop Campout (formerly Webelos Woods)! Nov 1-3 (Signup deadline October 21st...no exceptions)

Posted on Oct 10 2024 - 10:28am
2024 TRJ Fall Trail to Troop #1 - Hosted by Northern Trail District

Trail to Troop is an awesome opportunity for Arrow of Light (and their parents) to experience some of the fun that they can look forward to once they cross over into a troop. Troops will host Arrow of Light Scouts from various packs and will form patrols which will include those Arrow of Light Scouts for the weekend. AOL Dens will be assigned to camp with a host Troop by the event staff. 

On Saturday, the patrols will rotate in a round-robin style of activities where they can visit with different Troops. Each patrol will learn a variety of different outdoor and Scout skills and put them to use in live demonstrations. On Saturday night, both districts will come together to enjoy a rousing campfire program with yells and skits! There will also be a OA Brotherhood ceremony on Saturday evening.

This has the potential to be one of the biggest recruiting events of the year - we hope you and your Scout will support this signature event for the District.

All the details, registration and permission slips can be found HERE

Note: Please sign up by OCTOBER 21st so we can meet the Council-imposed deadline for registration There will be no extensions/exceptions since this is a district event.
