Scouts will enjoy camping at Camp William B. Snyder in Haymarket, Virginia starting Saturday afternoon after ice skating at the Reston Town Center.
Scouts should pack a bag lunch for Saturday. We will bring our trailer with all troop and patrol equipment, and as always, Saturday dinner and Sunday breakfast are planned and prepared by patrols. Scouts should dress appropriately and may bring gloves and bicycle or ski helmet for skating protection.
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.
