Continental Army Pilgrimage
All Scouts(Scouts BSA, Cub Scouts, Webelos, Ventures, and Sea Scouts) are invited to join us to participate in hands-on activities during the day that help connect Scouts with life in the 1700s and what it was like to be a Continental soldier during the fight for independence. Unlike in years past, program areas will run 90 minutes allowing Scouts to have a direct interactive experience. Expected program areas to include (actual program areas may be different):
● Revolutionary War First aid and surgery
● Cooking
● Camp set-up and operations
● Skirmishing and black powder demonstration
● Marching and military bearing
● Tracking
● Revolutionary War History
● Camp Followers
● Native Americans in the revolution
● Cavalry operations
● Museum of the American Revolution activity
● Revolutionary War Escape Room
● Music of the Revolutionary War
● Revolutionary War Game Show
Patrols will have an opportunity to prioritize their areas of interest in advance and schedules will be provided.
Arrival after 8:00 am on Saturday, March 9th with the program running from 9:00am until 4:00 pm including a break for you to eat the lunch you need to bring with you.
