$25 per Scout BSA, $15 per Arrow of Light, $15 per adult. Lunch provided. Must be registered by Wednesday, January 7th.

This year’s stations will include:

Search and Rescue – troops need to bring materials to safely evacuate 1 immobile adult

Batapult – Build a catapult with timber and rope provided to launch rubber bats for accuracy and distance. Image of the structure the troop will build and equipment can be found here.

Pancake Stack – Using the Camp Chef and ingredients provided, troops need to build the tallest stack (troops bring all tools needed to prepare and cook)

Crazy Train Pull – sled teams will pull the provided sled to navigate our crazy train course for the fastest time

Run-on-Joke Challenge – What troop has the biggest hams. 3 scouts from each troop will run to the front of the parade grounds to share a quick joke with the district. To make it more interesting, if a joke has already been told, it cannot be told again. The order of presentation will be a random drawing so you will want to have a few jokes in reserve. The troop that gets our honored judges to laugh the most will get a special ribbon unique to the spirit of this event for their troop flag

Logging Camp – 2-person saw and fire starting. Troops will demonstrate starting a fire with flint/steel, steel wool/battery, and either a bow or pump drill.

Rifle – Except AOLs will go to tomahawk bay

Shotgun – Except AOLs will work on an AOL adventure
