Webelos Woods 2016

This weekend will be our annual Webelos Woods campout at Camp Norse (112 Parting Ways Road, Kingston, MA).  Scouts are asked to arrive no later than 7:30AM on Saturday, 9/24.  We will be at the Kolli site, which is our usual location.  (See map below)

 

Webelos Woods is an overnight camping weekend for the Webelos and their parents.  Troop 20 are their hosts for the weekend and it is our opportunity to interact with the Webelos, show them what Boy Scouts is all about and most importantly, show them how awesome Troop 20 is!

The weather looks to be great for camping and while it won’t be cold, it will be cooling off and Saturday night could be chilly so dress accordingly.

We’ll see everyone there Saturday morning!
