Neil Armstrong was an astronaut and aeronautical engineer who was the first person to walk on the Moon. He was also a naval aviator, test pilot, and university professor. But first, he was a Scout. Neil Armstrong didn’t stop at the 21 merit badges required for Eagle – he finished with 26—including the Scholarship, Aviation, Pathfinding, and Pioneering Merit Badges. Unfortunately for Neil though, the Space Exploration merit badge wasn’t created until 1965 — the year he turned 35. Join us for a great camporee with a focus on exploring aerospace and outer space! There will be competitions, merit badges and more!
Plus, we’ll have a dessert cook-off featuring astronaut’s favorite flavoring… TANG!! More details will be coming soon.
Thank you for your efforts to date and your commitment to putting on a great event for the youth in our district!
Price per Person – $15
