Spring Camp-o-rall - We will have a day trip on May 4th for our Spring Camporee. We will be facing off against other troops, and your patrol needs you. Let’s start refining and perfecting our skills so we can dominate this camporee! Adequate Patrol meetings help out tremendously when it comes to refining these skills on top of our weekly meeting practice.
