OCONOMOWOC LODGE
WINTER SOCIAL WEEKEND:
"Superheroes with a Twist"
SANDSCREST SCOUT RESERVATION
JAN 9-11, 2026
All OA Members are welcome! Come for the weekend or just come for Saturday, either way, it's going to be a great time with Arrowmen from across the Mountaineer Area Council!
We will be having activities throughout the day and wrap up with something special, we're heading to the Wheeling Nailers game to support Scouts Day at the Nailers!
This year's theme is Superheroes with a Twist, Marble Superheros! That's right, Marble, not Marvel. Bring your most creative, one-of-a-king superhero costume and show off your imagination.
Can't make the whole weekend? That's okay! Sign up for just Saturday only, or stay Saturday through Sunday if you can, the more fellowship, the better!
Camping - will be in the no-heat cabins. Pack appropriately as this is winter camping with a twist of being indoors without heat.
- If you have a cot, bring a cot otherwise pad as the cabins only have 4 bunk beds that sleep 8 but can fit more cots on lower and upper levels.
- Don't forget to bring some money too for the game.
Pack for indoor camping and don't forget your A&B Health forms. Everyone will need to check in with the Health Officer. Parents should not just drop you off until the Health Officer has reviewed your forms. The Health Officer will also note who will be picking up the scout. Your health form should state who can pick you up.
