WEBELOS and INVITED GUESTS:
We are very happy to have you as our guests at this outing and be included in our Saturday activities. We would like to arrive at the campsite (see directions below, but basically 7 miles north of Cave Creek).
When you arrive, the Webelos will join with our Scouting Groups and participate in the Mountain Man activities. Webelos should be in their Scout Uniform, weather appropriate clothing, a water cannister and snacks for the day. Hamburgers will be provided for the Webelos and their Adult Leaders for lunch.
Webelos should plan to arrive by 9am and will be engaged in the activities until 3:30 to 4:00pm. You are welcome to depart at that time or you are welcome to camp with us for the night and participate in the Troop events for the evening. There are special rules for the Webelos, if they want to camp Saturday night. Please contact our Scoutmaster Tim Whitney for specific details, if you want to camp Saturday night.
