The Klondike Derby is a competition of patrol skills, individual knowledge, teamwork, and ingenuity.  The object is simple:  Earn Gold for Scout Skills, Scout Spirit, and Patrol Cooperation while having Fun in the Winter Cold.  Units will use a map and station list to determine which mines they want to try.   The Patrols plan their routes, select their stations, and budget their time to maximize their winnings.

BOY SCOUT TROOPS, VENTURING CREWS and VARSITY PATROLS are invited to participate in the Klondike Derby.  Due to the skills and physical requirements associated with this event, Cub Scouts and Webelos cannot participate in this event.
