Scouts will enjoy car camping at Camp Snyder in Haymarket, VA on Saturday night after ice skating at Ashburn Ice House from 12:30am to 2PM.
Scouts should pack a bag lunch. We will bring our trailer with all troop and patrol equipment, and as always, meals are planned and prepared by patrols. Patrols will be responsible for dinner on Saturday, and Sunday breakfast.
Scouts must be prepared for cold weather and should remember the potential need for layered, synthetic clothing when they pack. Rain gear and a warm sleeping bag are a must, as well as a change into warm dry clothes (no cotton) for sleeping, extra layers (no cotton) to add on, and extra pairs of dry socks. It will be cold in the evening.
There is a $50 fee for each scout and parent attending. THE $15 TRANSPORTATION FEE IS WAIVED FOR BOTH SCOUT AND PARENT IF THE PARENT IS DRIVING.
