The 2nd annual Longhorn Council's Multi District Camporee is hosting Mountain Man Rendezvous—held in April 4th at the Wyatt 3 Rivers Ranch in Glen Rose TX.

The purpose of the rendezvous is to teach youth about the tradition of the annual mountain man summer gatherings held from approximately 1825 to 1840 in various locations in the western United States.

We want youth to appreciate what went into settling our country, including what mountain men did..

A 19th-century rendezvous brought Rocky Mountain fur trappers, known as mountain men, and Native Americans together with representatives of supply companies from St. Louis and other points east. In addition to serving as an occasion for trappers to exchange their pelts for much-needed supplies for the coming year, rendezvous was a time of festivities and friendly competition.

This modern Scout version of a rendezvous also brings together many people, as troops, Brazos Valley District, Lonestar District and Santa Fe District. in 2024 we had over 300 participants and anticipate many more in 2025.

This camporee is not the type of event where you can focus on any one aspect of the competition and expect to win. Your Troop must put effort into every aspect of this event.
