Troop 48 Troop Scouts and Guides please note the April Webelos wood, unfortunately, has been rescheduled for a Saturday / Sunday conflicting with our pre-scheduled Backbone Rock trip.
WE WILL NOT BE ATTENDING AS A TROOP-
However, if you are not planning on attending Backbone Rock let Julieann White know if you have availability to attend Webelos Woods
Backbone Rock is a truck-in ( with optional backing in ) to camp at Backbone Rock Campground AND VA Creeper Trail biking Sunday departing from Damascus, VA).
Most of Saturday and Sunday afternoons will be spent rappelling and maybe rock climbing. Beginners are welcome; we will have a “prep school” 10-ft high course plus the usual 40-ft descent and others depending upon our resources.
A nice stream and rapids beside the campground are added attractions for fishing. We will participate in gan ames and enjoy camp stories, jokes, and songs.
Again If you can not attend Backbone rock let Julieann White know if you have interest in going to CDC for Webelos Woods-
If any questions about the Troop 48 programs, contact Scoutmaster Julieann White
