CUB ADVENTURE CAMP

$15 YOUTH | $10 ADULTS

The tradition of a youth led Klondike Derby continues! Troop 709-B from the James River District, the winners of the 2024 Derby, are hosting the 2025 event. Everything from the event theme and patch design to every single activity station is designed and planned by Scouts so you know your youth will have a blast. Let your adult leaders relax around the campfire while host Troop 709-B and their team take your Scouts on the adventure of a lifetime and crown a brand-new Klondike Derby Winner.

For those new to the concept, the Klondike Derby is a race to complete activities in multiple “towns” where teams test their Scout skills and leadership abilities to earn “gold.” Each team of four to eight transports the gear necessary to complete the different stations on a homemade sled they pull around the course. Earned “gold” is then spent in the Gold Nugget Auction at the end of the day. The theme and activities change from year to year with each new host.

Want to attend but don’t have the time or ability to build a sled? Your team can divide up the gear list and backpack it or use a commercially available wheeled cart/wagon to compete. This is awesome for new troops, troops with only one sled, and last-minute signups.

The $15 youth and $10 adult registration cost covers the event patch, event ribbon for your unit’s flag, keepsake wristband, camping for two nights, and all activities. Units supply and cook their own food for the weekend. Potable water is available onsite.

Registration Notes:

Registration will be by sled team. Each sled team should be manned by four to eight scouts. The system is set to a default of four scouts, and you may add additional scouts up to the maximum of eight. Please remember that if your troop only has one sled, you are welcome to have a “sled team” register as a team and participate using backpacks as part of the Backpacking Class.

If you have scouts not participating on a sled team, please register them as Non-Sled Team Youth.

The event is limited to 24 teams so register today!
