“GOLD! GOLD! GOLD! GOLD!”

When the newspapers screamed that on their front pages, I knew our sleepy town was about to get busy. Real busy. Welcome to Jagged Gorge, the wildest part of the west. It would only be a matter of time before prospectors flooded in, sights set on riches and glory. Now we could fuss, or we could fill our pockets with their big-city dollars. Miners need mining camps, and no one can raise a camp like us. Only problem is, right now the field outside of town is empty and prospectors will arrive any minute. We’ve only got until sundown to get this place in tip-top shape...

The main event of this year’s Klondike Derby is to work as a team to construct the best mining camp possible. Teams have all day to complete this task. Each team will be given a camp site . At each site, the team will also be given a “specialty.” They will be required to run a skill station which other units will visit to help gather supplies related to this specialty. (supplies will be rewarded based on skill station completion). Need wood for lashing, visit the tools; need rope, visit the craft camp; need firewood, visit the timber camp; etc. Are you ready to build the best mining camp the great northwest has ever seen?
