December 2014 Outing – Cooking Competition/ Camping Trip

When:  December 12-13, 2014
Where: Great Falls, VA
Time:   Arrive at the St. Francis parking lot at 6:30 pm on Friday, December 12, 2013 after dinner or bring a bag dinner.
Parents are invited to join the scouts to taste their cooking competition meals at 5:00 pm on Saturday, Dec13.
Departure is on Saturday, December 13, at conclusion of the Cooking Competition cleanup and all Patrol gear is put away.

Scouts will enjoy car camping at St. Francis Church grounds in Great Falls. Troop 55 will use this opportunity to work on pioneering skills, as well as scout skill development. Also, as part of this outing, scouts will also prepare for, and participate in the annual troop-wide cooking competition. The scouts of Troop 55 are cooking aficionados, and the cooking competition is a favorite activity among the troop.

We will use our trailer with all troop and patrol equipment, and as always, meals are planned and prepared by patrols. Patrols are responsible for Saturday breakfast and the Competition Dinner. Saturday lunch provided by Venture Crew.
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 is 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 an $18 fee that covers meals for each scout and each Patrol’s Cooking Competition menu. Registration and payment are due Sunday, December 7th. After this date a late registration fee of $28 will be in effect.

OUTING GEAR:  It is important that scouts pack their own gear so they know what they have with them and where to find it.  Not sure what gear to bring?
